\textbf{\underline{\underline{According\:to\:the\:Question}}}

★Assume the number be p.

★Hence we have :-

{\boxed{\sf\:{5th part=\dfrac{p}{5}}}}

{\boxed{\sf\:{4th part=\dfrac{p}{4}}}}

★Condition is like that :-

{\boxed{\sf\:{\dfrac{p}{5}+5=\dfrac{p}{4}-5}}}

Solving the denominator we get :-

{\boxed{\sf\:{\dfrac{p+25}{5}=\dfrac{p-20}{4}}}

★Now by cross multiply we get :-

4(p + 25) = 5(p - 20)

4p + 100 = 5p - 100

5p - 4p = 200

★Therefore we get,

p = 200

\huge\boxed{Number\:=\:200}

Let the number be n.

Fifth part of the number be n/5.

fourth part of the number be n/4.

According to question,

(\frac{n}{5}   + 5) = ( \frac{n}{4}  - 5)

Now, after taking LCM,

 \frac{n + 25}{5}  =  \frac{n - 20}{4}

By cross multiplying,

4(n + 25) = 5(n - 20)

4n + 100= 5n - 100

4n - 5n =  - 100 - 100

 - n =  - 200

n = 200

Therefore, the number is 200.
