Question 1157822

One number is 1/5 of another number. The sum of the two numbers is 30. Find the two numbers. Use a comma to separate your answers.
<pre>Let the smaller be S
Since one is {{{1/5}}} of the other, this translates to the larger being 5S
We then get: S + 5S = 30
6S = 30
{{{highlight_green(matrix(1,6, Smaller, (S), "=", 30/6, "=", 5))}}}
Do you think you can find the larger now?
