One number is 4 times the other, so x and 4x.
The sum of two numbers is 4x+x=70.
Solve for x to get
x=70/5=14
the other number is 4x=4*14=56
You would need to use the following equation to solve this problem : 4x + x = 70
4x + x = 70
5x = 70
5x/5 = x 70/5 = 14
x = 14
4x = 56
4x + x = 70
5x = 70
5x/5 = x 70/5 = 14
x = 14
4x = 56
