Let the initial number be x and the other number be x + 5
The other number = initial number + 5
                              = 8 x 9
                              = 72
The initial number = 72 - 5
                               = 67
Therefore, the initial number is 67 and the other number is 72.

Hi aditi :-)
As you know 8*9 or 9*8 = 72 . So you have to subtract 5 from 72 = 67
So your answer is 67
