$\mathrm{n} \propto \frac{1}{\ell} \quad \frac{\mathrm{n}_{1}}{\mathrm{n}_{2}}=\frac{\ell_{2}}{\ell_{1}}$

$\frac{\mathrm{N}}{\mathrm{N}+5}=\frac{20}{20.5}$

$20.5 \mathrm{N}=20 \mathrm{N}+5 \times 20$

$0.5 \mathrm{N}=100$

$\mathrm{N}=\frac{100}{0.5}=200 \mathrm{\,Hz}$

$\mathrm{N}+5 \Rightarrow 200+5=205 \mathrm{\,Hz}$
