The number of toffees Sharon got is 10.

Ratio expresses the relationship between two or more numbers. It shows the frequency of the number of times that one value is contained within other value(s).

Number of toffees Sharon has = (ratio of toffees Sharon got / sum of ratios) x total toffees shared.

Sum of ratios -= 2 + 5 = 7

(5/7) x 14 = 10
