Answer: PLEASE BRAINLIEST MY ANSWER
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Q) If the compound ratio of 6:7 and x:12 is 4:7 find the value x
⇒Compound ratio means the ratio obtained by two or more ratios are multiplies termwise.
If a:b and c:d are two given ratios, then their compound ratio is ac : bd
Now the given is -
6:7 ; x:12 are two ratios and their compound ratio is 4:7
∴ (6:7)*(x:12) = 4:7
∴ x/12 = (4/7)/(6/7)
∴ x/12 = (4/7)*(7/6)
∴ x/12 = (4*7)/(7*6)
∴ x/12 = 28/42 = 4/6 = 2/3
∴ x/12 = 2/3
∴ x = (2/3)*12
∴ x = (2*12)/3 = 2*4
∴ x = 8
