Question

1:4::6:?

please any one solve it​

Answer 1

The value of ? is 24.

Given:

1:4::6:?

To Find:

The value of ?

Solution:

In this question, we are going to use the concept of proportion.

When two ratios are equal, they are said to be in proportion.

Let us take two ratios a:b and c:d.

If the ratios a:b and c:d are equal, they are in proportion.

Proportionality is expressed as

a:b = c:d or a:b :: c:d

The terms 'b' and 'c' are called means.

The terms 'a' and 'd' are called extremes.

The product of extremes is equal to the product of means.

So, ad = bc

Since it is given that 1:4::6:?

We can use the product concept to find the value of ?

1 × ? = 4 × 6

? = 24

Hence, the value of ? is 24.
