Answer:
We have,
Let the two whole number is x and y.
Then,
x−y=66...(1)
Now, Acoording to question,
yx=25
⇒2x=5y
⇒x=25y
Put in equation (1) and we get,
x−y=66
⇒25y−y=66
⇒5y−2y=66×2
⇒3y=66×2
⇒y=366×2
⇒y=22×2
⇒y=44
Put the value of y in equation (1) and we get,
x−y=66
⇒x−44=66
⇒x=66+44
⇒x=110
Then, the number is 110 and 44
