No.
Set up a ratio, cross multiply, and solve for x.
4/5 = 16/x (ratio, with "x" where the unknown is)
4x = 80 (after cross multiplying)
x = 20 (after dividing both sides by 4)
Now you try the second one.

This one is a bit different.
In the first one, the "16" was the value of one of the terms of the ratio.
In this one, the "240" is the sum of the terms of the ratio.
Let Anton's number of stamps be 4x
let Maria's number be 2x
4x + 2x = 240
x = 40
Maria has 2x or 80 stamps
