    Answer:

    The smaller number is 240.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The question says that the larger number is 300, so 5 has to be 300.

    4:5

    ?:300

    You can use cross-multiplication or find the scale factor to find the answer.

    Cross-multiplication:

    4 × 300 ÷ 5 = 240

    Finding the scale factor:

    300 ÷ 5 = 60

    4 × 60 = 240

    The smaller number is 240.
