Let's solve the problem step by step:

Let's assume that the number is "x".

The given statement translates to the inequality: 5 + 4x < 25.

Now, let's solve this inequality:

Subtracting 5 from both sides, we get: 4x < 20.

Dividing both sides by 4, we get: x < 5.

Hence, the possible values of the number "x" are all real numbers less than 5.
