Answer» TWO whole NUMBERS are in the ration of 2:5. If their DIFFERENCE is 66, FIND the whole numbers. Since the whole numbers are in the ratio 2:5, Let the whole numbers be 2*x, 5*x. Difference between the whole numbers is 66. Thus, 5*x - 2*x = 66 3*x = 66 x = 22 Thus the whole numbers are : 2*22, 5*22 i.e, 44,110. |
