Hi ,
This problem related to proportion.
Difinition:
The equality of two ratios is called proportion.
In a proportion , the first and fourth terms are known as
Extremes , while second and third terms are known as
Means.
If a : b = c : d , we write a : b : : c : d and we say that
a , b , c , d are in proportion.
We have ,
**********************************************************************
Product of extrems = product of means
ad = bc
***********************************************************************
According to our problem,
24 : 126 : : 48 : x
Product of extrems = product of means
24 × x = 126 × 48
x = ( 126 × 48 ) / 24
x = 252
Required number = x = 252
I hope this will useful to you.
