Question

How do I do it, please help.If you do help explain it clearly for me

Answer 1

First we set up a proportion:


`(3)/(4) = (27)/(x)`

Now we solve the proportion:

• 27*4 = 108

• 3*x = 4x

• 3x = 108

We solve for X by dividing 3 on both sides:

• 3x/3 = x
• 108/3= 36

Our answer:

x = 36
