Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let's the ratio be x

5x + 7x=180

12x= 180

x=12/180

x=15

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the two numbers be 5x and 7x

Then:

5x+7x = 180

12x = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15

The two numbers are :

5x = 5×15 = 75

7x = 7×15 = 105

Answer---> 75 and 105 are the two numbers whose sum is 180 and they are in the ratio of 5:7.
