Answer:84

Step-by-step explanation: first find the difference between 7 and 5 which is 2 this means that 14 = 2 . ? = 7 . ? = 5 . to find the ? = 7 you divide 14 by 2 which is 7. this means that 7 = 1 . multiply 7 by 7 to get 49 .

49 = 7 . do the same thing with ? = 5 , 7 multiplied by 5 = 35 . 35 = 5 .

7:5 = 49:35 . to get How many raisins they shared just get the sum of 49+35 which is 84
