Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1:
Ratio is equivalent to division. In other words, a : b is the same as a/b.
x : 6 = 5 : 3
x/6 = 5/3
x = 6 x 5/3 = 10
Method 2:
If two ratios are equal, then
product of means = product of extremes.
x : 6 = 5 : 3
product of means = product of extremes
(x) * (3) = (6) * (5)
x = 6 * 5 / 3 = 10
Therefore, the value of x is 10.
Hope this clears your doubt.
