<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
d = 25

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
To get the value of d, we will need to isolate the d on one side of the equation.

<u>This can be done as follows:</u>
</span>\frac{15}{d} =  \frac{24}{40}<span>

<u>First, we will do cross multiplication as follows:</u>
40*15 = 24*d
600 = 24d

<u>Then, we will isolate the d as follows:</u>
24d = 600
</span>\frac{24d}{24} =  \frac{600}{24}
<span>
d = 25

Hope this helps :)</span>

Answer:

The unknown variable d is, 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that two ratios or fractions are equal.

Solve for d:

\frac{15}{d} = \frac{24}{40}

By cross multiply we have;

600 = 24d

Divide both sides by 24 we have;

\frac{600}{24} = d

Simplify:

25 = d

or

d = 25

therefore, the unknown variable d is, 25.

2/0 = 32/48 = 30/0. What number shpuld come in place of the zeros?​
Anton [14]

Answer:

\sf \dfrac{2}{3}  = \dfrac{32}{48}  = \dfrac{30}{45}

<h3><u>For the 1st part</u></h3>

\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{2}{x} = \dfrac{32}{48}

\sf \rightarrow 2(48)= {32x}

\sf \rightarrow 32x= 96

\sf \rightarrow x = 3

<h3><u>For the 2nd part</u></h3>

<u />\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{32}{48} = \dfrac{30}{y}

\rightarrow \sf {32y} = 30(48)

\rightarrow \sf {32y} = 1440

\rightarrow \sf y = 45
