Answer:

The value of x for the following proportion is: 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given proportion is:

[tex]\frac{x}{6} = \frac{6}{24}[/tex]

In order to solve the proportion, we have to isolate x on one side of the equation and then simplify

First of all simplifying

[tex]\frac{x}{6} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Now to find the value of x, multiplying both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{x}{6} * 6 = \frac{1}{4}*6\\x =\frac{6}{4}\\x = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Hence,

The value of x for the following proportion is: 3/2
