Answer:
The numbers are 23 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Set up the equations
Let x = the greater number
and y = the smaller number. Then
(1) x - y = 16
4y = 4 times the smaller number and
4y - 5 = 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Then
(2) x = 4y - 5
You have a system of two equations:

2. Solve the equations

The larger number is 23; the smaller number is 7.
3. Check

OK.
