x=12 and y=18 satisfies both the equalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are;

x/y = 2/3   Eqn 1

y/24 = 3/4   Eqn 2

Multplying by 24 on both sides of Eqn 2

24*\frac{y}{24}=\frac{3}{4}*24\\\frac{24y}{24}=\frac{72}{4}\\y=18

Putting y=18 in Eqn 1;

\frac{x}{18}=\frac{2}{3}

Multiplying both sides by 18

18*\frac{x}{18}=\frac{2}{3}*18\\\frac{18x}{18}=\frac{36}{3}\\x=12

Putting both values in Eqn 1

\frac{12}{18}=\frac{2}{3}\\

As 12 and 18 are multiples of 6;

\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}

x=12 and y=18 satisfies both the equalities.
