Question

How do you do this pleaseee whel Mee

Answer 1

I would use simultaneous equations to do this.
let the greater number be y and the smaller be z.
so,
y - z = 2452. we call this formula 1.
y = 5z. this is formula 2.
since formula 2 directly already tells you what is y, we don't need to modify it, we can directly sub it into formula 1.
so now we get,
5z - z = 2452.
4z = 2452
z = 613
great, now we have z, just sub z = 613 into formula 2.
y = 5 x 613
y = 3065
now we have both numbers and we just add them together for the sum.
613 + 3065 = 3678
so I think the answer is 3678.
