Answer:

63

Step-by-step process:

I can't tell what the wording of your question is, but this is how I interpreted it:

The equation:
(5)/(7) = (45)/(x), where you have to solve for x.

There are two ways of doing this:

Process 1:

We multiply 5 with x and 7 with 45:

5x = 7 * 45

5x = 315

x = 63

Process 2:

Because 45 is 5 * 9, logically, the value x should be increase 9 times from its original number, 7. So then 7 * 9 = 63.
