Correct Answer: 7 : 3
Solution : Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}×{\text{Base × Height}}$ $\frac{\text{Area of triangle 1}}{\text{Area of triangle 2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times \text{Base}_1 \times \text{Height}_1}{\frac{1}{2}\times \text{Base}_2 \times \text{Height}_2}$ ⇒ $\frac{5}{3}=\frac{\text{Base}_1 \times 5}{\text{Base}_2 \times 7}$ ⇒ $\frac{\text{Base}_1}{\text{Base}_2}=\frac{7}{3}$ Hence, the correct answer is 7 : 3.
