Let's analyze the problem step by step.

The problem says:
- I have four times the amount of money that you have. Let's call the amount of money you have **x**, so the amount I have is **4x**.
- If you had 5 more soles than you currently have, I would have twice as much as you. This means:
  \[
  4x = 2(x + 5)
  \]

We need to solve for **x** and then find the difference between our amounts of money, which is \( 4x - x = 3x \).

### Solving the equation:

\[
4x = 2(x + 5)
\]

Expanding:

\[
4x = 2x + 10
\]

Subtracting \(2x\) from both sides:

\[
2x = 10
\]

Dividing by 2:

\[
x = 5
\]

So, you have **5** soles, and I have **4 \times 5 = 20** soles.

### Finding the difference:

The difference between our amounts is:

\[
20 - 5 = 15
\]

But the problem is asking for the total difference when we compare the scenario where you would have 5 extra soles. Let me check further and clarify. 

Let's reanalyze carefully. The problem asks: "¿En cuánto se diferencian nuestras cantidades?"

- We already know that **you have 5 soles**, and **I have 20 soles**.
- The condition mentions that if you had 5 more soles, I would have twice as much as you.

Now let's compute the difference under these new conditions:
- If you had 5 more soles, your new total would be **\( 5 + 5 = 10 \)** soles.
- I would still have **20 soles**. 
- Since the equation matches (I have twice your new total, \( 20 = 2 \times 10 \)), everything checks out.

### Final difference:
The difference between my original amount (20 soles) and your amount (5 soles) is:
\[
20 - 5 = 15 \text{ soles}.
\]

The options seem to involve interpreting a different part of the problem. Let's list this discrepancy

Yo tengo el cuádruple de lo que tú tienes. Si tuvieras 5 soles más de lo que tienes, yo tendría dos veces más de lo que tú tendrías. ¿En cuánto se diferencian nuestras cantidades?

Solve this algebra problem where one person has four times the amount of money as another, and we explore what happens when additional conditions are introduced. The solution involves solving a linear equation and understanding how quantities differ under these conditions.
