Answer:

The smaller number is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that the larger number is 300, so 5 has to be 300.

4:5

?:300

You can use cross-multiplication or find the scale factor to find the answer.

Cross-multiplication:

4 × 300 ÷ 5 = 240

Finding the scale factor:

300 ÷ 5 = 60

4 × 60 = 240

The smaller number is 240.
