25 , 30
Given
One number is 5 more than another number
and 6 times the smaller number is equal to 5 times the larger number
To Find
Two numbers
Solution
Let one and small number be , " x "
A/c , " one number is 5 more than another number "
So , bigger number be , " x + 5 "
A/c , " 6 times the smaller number is equal to 5 times the larger number "
⇒ 6x = 5 ( x + 5)
⇒ 6x = 5x + 25
⇒ 6x - 5x = 25
⇒ x = 25
So , smaller number = x = 25
Bigger number = x + 5 = 30
The smaller number = 25
The larger number = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
The smaller number = x
One number is 5 more than another number
So,
The larger number = x + 5
Also,
6 times the smaller number is equal to 5 times the larger number
⇒ 6x = 5 (x + 5)
⇒ 6x = 5x + 25
⇒ 6x - 5x = 25
⇒ 1x = 25
⇒ x = 25
The smaller number = 25
__________________________
★ The larger number = x + 5
⇒ x + 5
⇒ 25 + 5
⇒ 30
The larger number = 30
