Answer:

25

Explanation:

5:20

We want to get the second number to 100

100/20 = 5

Multiply each term by 5

5*5 : 20*5

25 : 100

x is 25

Given that,

→ 5 : 20 :: x : 100

Then we have to,

find the second number to 100.

→ 100/20

→ 5

Now multiply each term by 5 in 5:20,

→ 5 × 5 : 20 × 5

→ 25 : 100

→ x = 25

Now these ratio will be,

→ 5 : 20 :: 25 : 100

Hence, the value of x is 25.
