Let the numbers be 5a and 6a

According to question

=> 5a +6a = 132

=> 11a = 132

=> a = 12

First number = 60

Second number = 72

Heya,

Given:-
Ratio = 5:6
Sum of the no.s = 132

To find:-
Two numbers

Solution:-
Let's assume it as 5x & 6x

Therefore,
5x + 6x = 132
11x = 132
x = 132/11
x = 12

5x = 5 × 12 = 60
6x = 6 × 12 = 72

Thus,
The two numbers are 60 & 72

Hope my answer helps you :)
