Answer:

x= 43, y=215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x,

Let the other number be y.

x= 5y

x - y= 172

Putting value of x in equation 2.

5y - y = 172

4y = 172

y= 172/4

y= 43

Putting value of y in eq. 1

x= 5(43)

x=215.

Bess [88]

Answer:

Hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make 5 3/4 into an improper fraction. That would be 23/4. 2. Write 4 in a fraction way. That would be 4/1. 3. Now do 23/4 X 4/1. That would be 92/4. 4. Turn it into a mixed number by doing 92 divided by 4. That would be 23. No fraction after 23. Jacob rode his bike 23 miles this week. :)
