To find-

Find two number

Solution-

Let, First number is $x$

Then Second number is $5x$

We write given information as,

$5x-x=200$

By substracting x from 5x we get

$4x= 200\\x= \frac{200}{4}$

Dividing 20 by 4 we get

$x=50$

The First number is 50

Then Second number is $5x$ =  $5\times50$ = $250$

Then Second number is 250
