$\underline{\underline{\huge\mathfrak{ANSWER :}}}$

$\textsf{Let the common ratio be} \textbf{\: x}$

Then, the numbers will be $\textsf{4x}$ and $\textsf{x}$

$\underline\textsf{We know that,}$

$\textsf{Their sum} = \textbf{30}$

$\mathsf{=> 4x + x = 30}$

$\mathsf{=> 5x = 30}$

$\mathsf{=> x = \frac{30}{5}}$

$\boxed{\mathbf{x = 6}}$

Then, the numbers are :

$\mathbf{x = 6}$
$\mathbf{4x = 4(6) = 24}$

Hence, the numbers are $\mathsf{6\:} \textsf{and \:} \mathsf{24}$
