Answer:

The smaller Number = 15

The larger number = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The smaller number = x

The larger number = 5x - 8

The sum = 82

(5x - 8) + x = 82

5x - 8 + x = 82

6x - 8 = 82

Add eight to both sides

6x - 8 + 8 = 82 + 8

6x = 90

Divide both sides by 6

x = 90/6

= 15

Therefore,

The smaller number = x = 15

The larger number = 5x - 8

= 5(15) - 8

= 75 - 8

= 67

olganol [36]

1.  divide each number by 6 and you get 4:3  answer c

2. 1x+4x=45  (the ratios give you how many of each you have)

5x=45  so x=9  that is the smallest number

3.  percent means out of 100  so 490/100  4.9

4  percent means out of 100  so .5/100  5/1000  = .005
