✪QUESTION✪:-

16 : x : :x : 3

find the value of x.

✪ANSWER✪

16 : x : :x : 3

here,

MEANS:

• x
• x

EXTREMES:

• 16
• 3

According to proportionality ,

Product of means = Product of extremes

So,

➥$x \times x = 16 \times 3$

➥${x}^{2} = 48$

➥$x = \sqrt{48}$

✪VERIFICATION✪:-

Product of means = Product of extremes

LHS:

➥Product of means

➥$( \sqrt{48)} ( \sqrt{48} )$

➥$48$

RHS:

➥Product of extremes

➥$16 \times 3$

➥$48$

Hence

LHS = RHS
