Answer:
28:71
Explanation:
99/7=14.14285714 (make sure to keep that in the calculator) that equals 1 part.
Therefore,
2×14.14...=28 (round up to nearest whole number)
5×14.14..=71 (round up to nearest whole number)
Let the two whole numbers be 2x and 5x
The difference between 2x and 5x is 99. So,
5x-2x=99
3x=99
x=99/3
x=33
Therefore the two numbers are
5x=5*33=165
2x=2*33=66
