Final answer:

The value of x on the larger parallelogram would be determined by finding the corresponding angle in the smaller parallelogram due to the property of proportional parallelograms having equal corresponding angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the value of x on the larger parallelogram assuming the two parallelograms are proportional. Without additional information or a diagram, it's impossible to give an accurate answer. To solve problems like this generally, one would use the properties of parallelograms, which state that opposite angles are equal, and consecutive angles are supplementary (sum to 180°). If the parallelograms are proportional, the corresponding angles would be equal. Therefore, you would look for the angle in the smaller parallelogram that corresponds to the angle where the variable x is located in the larger parallelogram and set them equal to each other to solve for x. For example, if angle A in the smaller parallelogram corresponds to angle x in the larger parallelogram and angle A is 108°, then x would also be 108°.
