Answer 2

The two numbers are a and b.

According to the given condition,

$a + b = 30$

$a = 5 b$

Substituting a=5b in the first given equation, we get,

$5 b + b = 30 \\ 6b = 30 \\ b = \frac{30}{6} \\ b = 5$

Substituting b=5 in the next equation, we get,

$a = 5b \\ a = 5 \times 5 \\ a= 25$

Ratio if the two number is:

a:b = 25:5

=5:1

a:b = 5:1
