WX is 10

Explanation goes as follows:

WY = 25 from the question given

adding the ratios together, we will have 2+3= 5

WX : XY = 2: 3

To find WX, we will simply say;

WX = 2/5 multiplied by 25

WX = 2/5 x 25

WX = 50/5

WX=10

Like-wise to find WY

we will simply say;

WY = 3/5 multiplied by 25

WY = 3/5 x 25

WY = 75/5

WY =15
