Question

What is the value of x in the proportion below?​

Answer 1

`\boxed{Option1}`

Explanation:

`(1/2)/(4) = (x)/(28)`

Cross Multiplying

=> 1/2 * 28 = 4x

=> 14 = 4x

=> 4x = 14

Dividing both sides by 4

=> x = 14/4

=> x = 7/2

=> x =
`3(1)/(2)`

Answer 2

3 1/2 =x

Explanation:

(1/2) / 4 = x/28

Using cross products

1/2 * 28 = 4*x

14 = 4x

Divide each side by 4

14/4 = 4x/4

7/2 = x

3 1/2 =x
