let numbers = 5x, 6x
5x-8/6x-8 = 4/5
25x-40 = 24x-32
25x-24x = 40-32
x = 8
then, numbers = 5x = 5*8 = 40
6x = 6*8 = 48
5x-8/6x-8 = 4/5
25x-40 = 24x-32
25x-24x = 40-32
x = 8
then, numbers = 5x = 5*8 = 40
6x = 6*8 = 48

Let the numbers , 5x, 6x
5x-8/6x-8 = 4/5
25x-40 = 24x-32
25x-24x = 40-32
x = 8
Then , numbers = 5x = 5*8 = 4 , 6x = 6*8 = 48
5x-8/6x-8 = 4/5
25x-40 = 24x-32
25x-24x = 40-32
x = 8
Then , numbers = 5x = 5*8 = 4 , 6x = 6*8 = 48
