Let the two numbers be x and y.
\n" ); document.write( "Given, y = 4x
\n" ); document.write( " y-4x = 0 ...(1)
\n" ); document.write( "Also, x+y = 50 ...(2)
\n" ); document.write( "(1)+(2)=> 5x = 50
\n" ); document.write( " x = 50/5 = 10
\n" ); document.write( " y = 4x = 4*10 = 40
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
