#Let the number be x...

#Another number 5x

#According to question

$(x + 2) 4= 5x + 2 \\ \\ 4x + 8 = 5x + 2 \\ \\ 4x - 5x = 2 - 8 \\ \\ - x = - 6 \\ \\ x = 6$

#Therefore the number is 6 and 30..

Answer is smaller no.6

bigger no. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number = x

bigger number = 5x. -----(we need this.)

5x + 2 = 4x+8

5x - 4x = 8-2

x=6
