Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the larger number and s be the smaller one.
Then we have two equations.
(1) L – s = 25
(2) s = L/6 Multiply both sides by 6
6s = L Substitute the value for L in Equation(1)
6s – s = 25 Combine like terms
5s = 25 Divide both sides by 5
s = 5
The value of the smaller number is 5.
