One positive number is 5 times another number . the difference between the two numbers is 80, find the numbers. the two numbers in increasing order are and

Define the numbers:

Let x be one number.
One number = x
Other number = 5x


Construct the equation:

5x - x  = 80


Combine like terms:

4x = 80


Divide by 4 on both sides:

x = 20


Find the 2 numbers:

One number = x = 20
Other number = 5x = 5(20) = 100


The two numbers in increasing order are 20 and 100.

The answer is c. 7 (i think) i’m almost sure though
