Question

find x in the proportion 5:3::x:12.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5:3::x:12  

x/12=5/3

x =5 x 12/3

x =60 /3

x =20

Answer 2

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a proportion product of means = product of extremes.

Therefore, A/Q, (5*12) = (3*x)

                         = 60 = 3x

                         = 3x = 60

                         = x = (60/3)

                         = x = 20

Hence, the value of x is 20 in this proportion.
