Understanding the Problem and Solving Equations

The video tutorial explains how to solve a problem where one positive number is five times another, and their difference is 484. By using a single variable, the smaller number is represented as x, and the larger number as 5x. The equation 5x - x = 484 is solved to find x = 121, making the smaller number 121 and the larger number 605. The tutorial provides a step-by-step explanation of setting up and solving the equation, concluding with the final solution.

What is the relationship between the two numbers in the problem?

• The numbers are equal.

• One number is five times the other.

• One number is twice the other.

• One number is half the other.
