Question

difference between two numbers is 5. four times of greater number is equal to five times the smaller number. find the number ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x(greater number)

another smaller number be x minus 5( smaller number)

four times the greater number=4x

five times the lesser number=5(x-5)

4x=5(x-5)

4x=5x-25

25=5x-4x

25=x

x=25(greater number)

smaller number=x - 5=25-5=20
