if two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are 5x-5 and 10x+35 degrees then the ratios of these angles are
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` 

The sum of two consecutive angles of a parallelogram is equal to 180°.

Therefore. you have an equation

(5x-5) + (10x+35) = 180.

Solve it and find x.

Then calculate the angles 5x-5 and 10x+35.

Then take the ratio of the measures of these angles.
