Question

if 2:3 = 24:x then the value of x =​

Answer 1

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3=2/3

24:x=24/x

So, after cross multiplication we get,

2×x=24×3

After that multiply or keep the variable in the right hand side the same.

2x=24×3

Now, x=24×3/2

Cancel the terms we get, x=12×3 i.e., =36(Ans).

Or,

you can also do 2×x=24×3

2x=72

x=72/2

x=36(Ans)

i.e., multiplying the terms in the right hand side and then finally cancelling by 2 we get the same answer i.e., 36.
