Smaller number: 2*22 = 44

Larger number: 5*22 = 110

Answer 2

Answer:

The two numbers are 44 and 110.

Explanation:

Let one number be 5x.

Let one number be 2x.

Difference between these two numbers is 66

According to question,

5x - 2x = 66

3x = 66

x = 66/3

x = 22

∴ One number ⇒ 2x

                         ⇒ 2 x 22 ⇒ 44

∴ Other number ⇒ 5x

                           ⇒ 5 x 22 ⇒ 110

∵ The two numbers are 44 and 110.
