Question

What is the value of x that will make each of the two ratios proportional?

Answer 1

a=7, b=14

Explanation:

a. 2/6=x/21

cross multiply=

2×21=x×6

then solve

42=6x

divide both sides by 6

x=42/6=7

b. 150/84=25/x

cross multiply=

84×25=150×x

then solve

2100=150x

divide both sides by 150

x=2100/150=14
