Question

If 4,6,x,12 are in proportion, then the value of x​

Answer 1

x = 8

Explanation:

What is a proportion?

⇒ Equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other.

As given:

`\mathrm{(4)/(6)=(x)/(12) }`

To summarize, we have to make both side equal. To do that we can cross multiply.

4 · 12 = 48

6 · x = 6x

Now we have:

48 = 6x

Divide both side by 6:

`(48)/(6) =(6x)/(6)`

8 = x

As a result, we know that value of x is 8.
