Answer 1

Question:-

If x, 18 14 and 3 in proportion, then what is the value for x

Answer:-

• The value of x is 84

To find:-

• Value of x

Solution:-

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {}x : 18 : : 14 : 3}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {} \frac{x}{18} = \frac{14}{3} }$

After cross multiplication,

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {}x \times 3 = 14 \times 18}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {}x = \frac{14 \times 18}{3} }$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {}x = 14 \times 6}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: {}x = 84}$

• The value of x is 84.
