$\sf\large\underline\bold \blue{ Answer }$

$\sf{ Ratio \: of \: Two \: rational \: numbers \: are = 5:8 }$

$\sf{ Let \: the \: two \: numbers \: be = 5x \: and \: 8x }$

$\bf\underline\bold \purple{ According \: to \: the \: question }$

${ 5x + 8x = 780 }$

${ 13x = 780 }$

${ x = 780/13 }$

${ x = 60 }$

$\fbox \pink{ values of the no. are }$

5x = 5×60 = 350

8x = 8×60 = 480
