HI Surender,
Incase there is no pattern of occurrence like the number is seen after x letters, you can go with REGEX .

You can replace all non number characters with empty characters, and you will have only numbers left. This regex says: any character a-z or A-Z or dash 
String recordName = 'RO-W1-445567'; String regex = '[a-zA-Z]{1,}|\\-'; String recordNumber = recordName.replaceAll(regex, ''); System.debug(recordNumber);
See reference : https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/42003/how-to-extract-a-number-from-a-string that has other approaches too.

Hope this helps you. Please mark this answer as best so that others facing the same issue will find this information useful. Thank you

Hi Surender,

Please use tested code:-
  
string str1 = 'Auto - New Business - Count;Premium - 300 - 400';
String[] val1 = str1.split('-');
System.debug('val1-- '+val1[3]  +'val2-- '+val1[4]  );

if you need any assistanse, Please let me know!!

Kindly mark my solution as the best answer if it helps you.

Thanks

hy surender,
you can use split function if you are confirm that before number (Dash ( - ) ) will come then you can use below code. 
string str1 = 'Auto - New Business - Count;Premium - 300 - 400';
String[] val1 = str1.split('-');
for(string s : val1 ){
    if(s.trim().isNumeric()){
        system.debug(s);//find only numeric value
    }    
}
