Question

take out the ratio of 5:2::32:x​

Answer 1

Answer:

a/b = c/d

ad = bc

x= 12.8

Step-by-step explanation:

5:2::32:x​

:: this is the sign of proportional that means the two given ratio is equal.

5/2 = 32/x

5x = 64

x = 64/5

x= 12.8

Answer 2

To find : the value of $x$.

Given ratio : $5 : 2 : :32 : x$

Solution :

• As we can see that in the given ratio of proportion $5 : 2 : :32 : x$ forth ratio is missing.
• To find forth ratio we can write $5 : 2 : :32 : x$

        as,  $\frac{5}{2}=\frac{32}{x}$

      transposing  like terms we get,

              $x = \frac{32\times 2}{5}$

• On simplifying we get ,

               $x = \frac{64}{5}$

                $x = 12.8$

Hence, value of $x$ is $12.8$.
