Hi, here's your answer.
Let the smaller number be 'x' and the grrater one be 'y'.
So, according to given conditions,
x+y=30-------(1)
x=4y-----------(2)
Substituting (2) in(1),
4y+y=30
5y=30
y=6
Substituting this value of y in (2),
x=4×6=24
So,the smaller number is 6 and the greater number is 24.
Hope it helps.
Thanks .
