Question

find the value of x 4: 9=16:x

step by step explanation​

Answer 1

Given

• 4 : 9 = 16 : x

To find

• x

Solution

Product of means = Product of extremes

• 4 : 9 = 16 : x
• 4 × x = 16 × 9
• 4x = 144
• x = 144/4
• x = 36

Hence, the value of x is 36.

Verification

• 4 : 9 = 16 : x
• 4 × 36 = 16 × 9
• 144 = 144
• L.H.S = R.H.S

Answer 2

Answer:

the value of X in the given problem is 36.

Given:

4: 9=16:X

To find:

the value of X in the given problem

Solution:

to find the value of X, let's use the cross multiplication method.

according to the question,

4: 9=16:X

4/9 = 16/X

4X = 16 x 9

4X = 144

X = 36  

Hence, 36 is the correct answer.
