Answer 2

Answer:

10 And 12

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two whole numbers be x and y

so given that, x + y = 22

and x : y = 5 : 6

we can make it to be like  x / y = 5 / 6

Now we can also say, x = 5y / 6

So now put this value in x + y = 22

5y/6 + y = 22

(5y+6y)/6 = 22

11y/6 =22

11y = 132

y=132/11

y=12

Now x + 12 =22

So x=10
