Question

find the value of x if 5:3 : : x: 6

Answer 1

Hello,

Find the value of x if 5/3 = x/6

5/3 = x/6

5/3 * 6 = x/6 * 6

x = 6/3 * 5

x = 2 * 5

x = 10

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x will be 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to the question asked,

We have to find the value of x,

As per data given in the question,

We have,

$5:3 : : x: 6$

In the form of the fraction the given ratio is written as:

$=> \frac{5}{3}=\frac{x}{6}$

Now, by using the method of cross multiplication:

=> 3 $\times$ $x$ = 5

Multiplying the numbers,

=> 3$x$ = 30

Divide both sides by 3,

=> $x =10$

Hence, the required value of x is 10.
