Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

[tex]One-fifth \ of \ a \ number = \dfrac{1}{5}x\\\\\\5 \ more \ than \dfrac{1}{5}x =\dfrac{1}{5}x+5\\\\\\one-fourth \ of \ the \ same \ number = \dfrac{1}{4}x\\\\\\5 \ less \ than \dfrac{1}{4}x=\dfrac{1}{4}x-5\\\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}x+5=\dfrac{1}{4}x-5\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}x=\dfrac{1}{4}x-5-5\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}x-\dfrac{1}{4}x=-10\\\\\\\dfrac{4}{20}x-\dfrac{5}{20}x=-10\\\\\\\dfrac{-1}{20}x=-10\\\\\\x= -10*\dfrac{20}{(-1)}\\\\\\x=200[/tex]
