Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x & y...

By looking at the ratio we can say 2x = 5y...............(i)

By looking at the difference we can say x - y = 66....................(ii)

Or, x = 66+y.......(iii)

Putting this value of x in eq.(i) we get  :

2(66+y) = 5y

132 + 2y = 5y

3y = 132

y = 44

Putting this value of y in eq.(iii) we get  :

x = 66 + 44

x= 110
