Sankar's present age is 28 years.

Explanation:

  • We have given current age ratio of Rajesh and Sankar i.e. 4:7
  • Let present ages of Rajesh and Sankar be 4x & 7x respectively.
  • After four years the age of Rajesh and Sankar will be 4x+4 & 7x+4 respectively.
  • After four years the ratio of their age is given to be 5:8

So, as per given condition we can write that

\frac{4x+4}{7x+4} = \frac{5}{8}

32x+32 = 35x+20

3x=12

x = 4

Therefore the present age of Rajesh is 4x = 4\times 4 = 16 years and Sankar is 7x = 7\times 4 = 28 years.

Hence, Sankar's present age is 28 years.
