Hey there!

Let's create a systems of equations with x and y to find our numbers.

x=5y

x-y=1480

Let's plug our x value into the second equation.

5y=y=1480

4y=1480

y=370

Now we multiply this number by five as the first equation says to get our x.

x=1850

Our numbers are 1850 and 370.

I hope this helps!
