Answer:

£60 : £24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's put the ratio into one number.

5 + 2 = 7

There are 7 parts in our ratio, so let's find one part.

£84 ÷ 7 = £12

Going back to the original ratio, we can multiply one part by 5 and 2.

£12 × 5 = £60

£12 × 2 = £24

And it all adds back together to make £84.

£60 + £24 = £84
