Hey mate!!

Let x be the first number and let y be the second number. From the first statement, we have:

x = 5y.

From the second statement, we have:

x + 21 = 2 × (y + 21).

[Since x = 5y, x must be greater than y, so x + 21 must be greater than y+ 21. That's how we know x + 21 = 2 × (y + 21), rather than the other way around, y + 21 = 2 × (x + 21).]

So all we have to do is solve this system of equations. This can be done easily by substitution, since the first equation is already solved for x. Plugging in 5y for x in the second equation, we have:

5y + 21 = 2 × (y + 21)

5y + 21 = 2y + 42

3y + 21 = 42

3y = 21                       

y = 7                            

Thus, y = 7

And x = 5y = 5 × 7 = 35,

so the two numbers are 7 and 35.

Hey


Here is your answer,


let one of the number be x.

second number be 5x.


2(x+21)=(5x+21)

=> 2x+42=5x+21

=> 2x−5x=21−42

=> −3x=−21

x=7


One of the number 7

Second number 7×5=35

Answer : 7,35


Hope it helps you!
