Answer:
The two numbers are 25 & 35.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us first add up 7 and 5 to find the total.
7 + 5 = 12
Now, we divide by 60.
60 / 12 = 5
Finally, we multiply both numbers by 5.
7 * 5 = 35
5 * 5 = 25
And 25 + 35 = 60, so that is the answer.
Hope this helps!

Let the two numbers be 7x and 5x
7x + 5x = 60
12x = 60
x = 60/12
x = 5
7x = 7 × 5 = 35
5x = 5 × 5 = 25
The numbers are 35 and 25
