Question

Find the value of x so that the ratios are equivalent.

7/4 to 14 and x to 32

Answer 1

since ratios are equivalent, then

7/4 : 14 :: X : 32,

hence

product of mean = product of extremes,

14 × X = 7/4 × 32,

14 × X = 7 × 8,

then

X = 56/14 = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since ratios are equivalent, then

7/4 : 14 :: X : 32,

hence

product of mean = product of extremes,

14 × X = 7/4 × 32,

14 × X = 7 × 8,

then

X = 56/14 = 4
