Question

Find × in this proportion 16/X = x/4x= a. 64b. 32c. 16d 8

Answer 1

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion given to us is

$\frac{16}{x} =\frac{x}{4}$

Next we cross multiply to get

$16*4=x*x$

$64=x^2$

$x^2=64$

Take the sqrt on both side to get x

so

$\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{64}$

x=8

so the correct option is d .

Answer 2

The answer to this question is D because 16 divided by 8 is 2 and 8 divided by 4 is 2. I hope this helps you :)
