Answer:

x,y = 191.67, 38.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y are two numbers

one of the them is five times the other

x=5y......................(1)

Their difference is 230

x+y=230 ..................(2)

Put the value of x in above equation

5y+y=230

6y=230

y=230/6

y=115/3 = 38.33

Put the value of y in equation (1)

x=5y

x=5(38.33)

x=191.67

so x,y = 191.67, 38.33
