according to question let first no x
second be y
so in first situation
x-y=5
x=5+y. (1)
in second equation

1/x-1/y=1/10
by putting values of (1)
1/5+y-1/y=1/10
so equation form and answer
y=5
and
x=10

nims4ever: can you please tell me the equation that is formed

Let the first natural no be x

second will be y

then ac to artist

x-y =5____--_______(1)

and again 1/x-1/y=1/10_________2)

x-y/x●y=1/10

xy=5

now,

x-y=50___-_(1)

x+y=√(x-y)^2+4xy

x+y=5^2+50*4

x+y=√225_---;--;----(3)

x+y=+-15

from 1 and 3 each other.

x-y=5

x+y=-15 if it is negative

_____

2x=10

x=5

and y=10

and.if it is -15

then

x-y=5

x+y=15

_____

2x=20

x=10

and y=5ans
