Step-by-step explanation:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Let the two no be x and y,

therefore x / y = 5 / 6,

6 * x = 5 * y,

6 * x - 5 * y = 0             * 5,

   30 * x -     25 * y = 0 ..................(i),

also (x - 8)/(y - 8) = 4 / 5,

5 * x - 40 = 4 * y - 32,

5 * x - 4 * y - 8 = 0                 *6,

30 * x - 24 * y - 48 = 0 .....................(ii),

subtracting  (i) from (ii),

y - 48 = 0,

y = 48.

putting y = 48 in x/y = 5/6,

x/48 = 5/6,

x = 5 * 48 / 6,

x = 5 * 8,

x = 40,

therefore the two numbers are 40 and 48.
