Answer:

Required fourth proportional of 3,4,18 is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to find fourth proportional.

By a simple way we can solve this problem.

Let a,b,c are 3 number and we want to find fourth proportional of a,b,c.

Let fourth proportional of a,b,c be d.

Now relation between a,b,c,d is

 \frac{a}{b}  =  \frac{c}{d} \\ d =  \frac{b \times c}{a}

Here given numbers are 3,4,18.

Let fourth proportional of 3,4,18 be x.

So, \frac{3}{4}  =  \frac{18}{x}

By cross multiplication,

3 \times x = 18 \times 4

x =  \frac{18 \times 4}{3}  = 24

Required fourth proportional is 24.
