Let's represent the two parts as x and 5x - 7.
Therefore, x + 5x - 7 = 59
Combining like terms, we get:
6x - 7 = 59
Adding 7 to both sides:
6x = 66
Dividing by 6:
x = 11
So, one part is 11 and the other part is 5(11) - 7 = 55 - 7 = 48.
Therefore, x + 5x - 7 = 59
Combining like terms, we get:
6x - 7 = 59
Adding 7 to both sides:
6x = 66
Dividing by 6:
x = 11
So, one part is 11 and the other part is 5(11) - 7 = 55 - 7 = 48.
