Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
let consider
large number=x
small number=y
as per question
y=(4/5)x this is 1st equation
x and y are consecutive numbers
then y+1=x or x-1=y this is 2nd equation
from 1st and 2nd equations
(4/5)x=x-1
4*x=5(x-1)
4*x=5*x-5
4*x-5*x=-5
-1*x=-5
x=5
large number is 5
small number is 4
i hope it is helpful
