The value of x is 18

Explanation:


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: (80)/(80 + 2x) = (60)/(60 + 27) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: (80)/(80 + 2x) = (60)/(87) \\ \: 60(80 + 2x) = 80 * 87 \\ 4800 + 120x = 6960 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 120x = 6960 - 4800 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 120x = 2160 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x = (2160)/(120) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x = 18

So, the value of x is 18
