Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call these numbers x and y and model the information we have.
x=1/5y
y-x=228 (we see that x is smaller than y in the first equation, so we put it second )
We see that x is equal to 1/5y. We can switch the x in the second equation with 1/5y and solve for y.
y-1/5y=228
4/5y=228
We divide both sides by 4/5.
y=285
We know that x is 1/5 of y, so we divide by 5.
285/5=57
x=57
So, our numbers are 57 and 285.
Have a wonderful day! :D
If we call the area A, then

if we call the perimeter P, then



subtracting 14 gives

subtracting 2x gives

dividing by 5 gives

or
Let, number of spiders = x
number of insects = y
6x + 8y = 36
remember, legs can't be in fraction or decimal.
So, only (3, 2) fits with that.
So, there are 3 spiders & 2 insects in his collection.
Hope this helps!
