Question

If 24, 60 and 90 are in proportion, find the second proportional
number.

Answer 1

Answer:

24:60:90:225

Step-by-step explanation:

24:60:90:x

24x = 60*90

or, 24x = 5400

or, x = 5400/24

or, x = 225

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second proportional be x.

24:x::60:90

Or, 24 * 90 = 60 * x

60x = 24 * 90

x = 24 * 90 / 60

x = 36
