Question

Find x if the following is in proportion/continued proportion in 48,60,x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 48,60,x is in proportion/continued proportion.

When three numbers a,b and c are in proportion then it is stated that;

                       $b^{2}$ = a * c

So,  60 * 60 = 48 * x

                  x = $\frac{60*60}{48}$

                  x = 75

Therefore, value of x = 75.
