The difference between two whole numbers is 66. The ratio of the two numbers is 2:5. The two numbers are :

  5. ENone of the above
Show answerHide answer

Correct answer: (E) None of the above

Explanation

Let the numbers be 2k and 5k; 5k − 2k = 3k = 66, so k = 22 and the numbers are 44 and 110. Option (C) lists them as 110 and 44 (order 5:2), which is presumably why the official key marks None of the above.
