StartFraction 75 times 1 Over 150 times 1 EndFraction = StartFraction 75 Over 150 EndFraction
StartFraction 150 times 2 Over 75 times 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 300 Over 150 EndFraction
StartFraction 200 times 2 Over 75 times 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 400 Over 150 EndFraction
StartFraction 75 times 2 Over 100 times 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 150 Over 200 EndFraction

200

Explanation:

multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 75, we have

X = 150 x 100/75

X = 200
