    1 and 5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Lets x and y be those numbers, and lets x be 1 more greater then 4 times y. Then we have:

    X=1+4y

    The sum of the numbers is 6, so

    X+y=6

    Put first equation in 2nd for x we get:

    1+4y+y=6

    1+5y=6

    5y=5

    Y=1+4*1=5

    Then x=1+4*1=1+4=5
