Answer:

X= 23

Step-by-step explanation

62 divided into 15.5 is 4.

This means that 92 will be 4 times greater than X. 92 divided by 4 is 23. Hence X=23.

I also added a picture for correct answer proof.

The answer is 23. We use the knowledge in similar triangles here. Since side AM in the larger triangle corresponds to WC in the smaller triangle, and MH corresponds to WF, the constant proportionality is equal to AM/WC=WC/WF. Substitute the given values in the diagram, 62/15.5=92/x, x=23.
