To find : missing numbers

Given : difference between two whole number is $66$. Ratio of the two numbers is $2:5$  .

Solution :  

• As per given data we know that ,difference between two whole number is $66$ .Ratio of the two numbers is $2:5$  .  

• Let , $2x$ and $5x$ be the numbers .  
• Therefore , we write given condition as $5x -2x = 66$

       $5x-2x = 66 \\3x = 66 \\x = 22$  

• Now , substituting value of $x$ in numbers .

      $2 (22 ) = 44$

      $5(22) = 110$

Hence, numbers are $44$ and $110$ .
