Question

If 9/24 =3/x , then x is ___ a0.

Answer 1

is this your question

if
`(9)/(24)` =
`(3)/(x)` then x= _____?

we know that 3 goes into 9 three times to equal 3 because we are basically just simplifying here either way if we are simplifying by 3 then 3 goes into 24 eight times

x = 8

Answer 2

`(9)/(24) = (3)/(x)`

Cross-Multiply:

`9x = 3 * 24`

Evaluate:

`9x = 72`

Divide both sides by 9:

`x = 8`

Answer: x = 8
