Let one positive number be x.
The other positive number is 5 times than this positive number.
Therefore the other positive number is 5x.
If 21 is added to both the numbers then one of the positive numbers become twice the other.
Therefore
5x + 21 = 2(x + 21)
5x + 21 = 2x + 42
3x = 21
x = 7
one positive number is 7 and therefore the other positive number is 5x = 5*7 = 35
7 and 35 are the numbers.
The other positive number is 5 times than this positive number.
Therefore the other positive number is 5x.
If 21 is added to both the numbers then one of the positive numbers become twice the other.
Therefore
5x + 21 = 2(x + 21)
5x + 21 = 2x + 42
3x = 21
x = 7
one positive number is 7 and therefore the other positive number is 5x = 5*7 = 35
7 and 35 are the numbers.
