Let the second term be x

18: x:: 30: 24

x×30=18×24

x=18×24/30

Answer: 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second term in the proportion be x.

So, 18:x::30:24

Now, solving it further...by multiplying the mean and extreme terms...

x*30=18*24

30x=432

x=432÷30

x=14.4

Therefore the second term in the proportion is 14.4 .

Thanks ...

Hope it helps...
