Let x and y are two numbers 
one of the them is five times the other
x=5y......................(1)
Their difference is 132
x-y=132 ..................(2)
Put the value of x in above equation
5y-y=132

4y=132 
4y/4=132/4 (Divide by 4 both sides)
y=33
Put the value of y in equation (1)
x=5y
x=5(33)
x=165 
so x,y = 33, 165
