Answer:

\large{\underline{\boxed{\sf (-132) \: \: and \: \: (-198)}}}

Explanation:

Ratio of numbers = 2:3

Let the common ratio be x.

First number = 2x

Second number = 3x

It is given that,

Difference = 66

According to the question ;

First number - second number = 66

⇒ 2x - 3x = 66

⇒ - x = 66

⇒ x = - 66

Thus, numbers are;

  • 2x = 2(-66) = -132
  • 3x = 3(-66) = - 198

Hence, the required numbers are (-132) and (-198).

\Huge{\boxed{Solution}}

Given :

Ratio's of two number

= 2:3

Their difference is

= 66

======================

To find :

Number

======================

So,

  Take two ratio's as

  2x and 3x

======================

According to the question

\implies3x-2x=66\\\\\\\implies x = 66\\\\\\\\\Huge{\boxed{\therefore x=66}}}

======================

Now we are going to verify

our answer

To verify answer we have to

pt the value of 'x' which is 66

======================

⇒ 3 ×  66  -  2 × 66  = 66

⇒ 198 - 132 = 66

⇒ 66 = 66

======================

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence it is verified

======================

First number = 2x

                     = 2 × 66

                     = 132

Second number = 3x

                           = 3 × 66

                            = 198
