Of means multiplication
So
And then simplify the numerator ad denominator
=
And simplify the numerator and denominator again
=
And we are finally left with the answer which is
Set as a proportion
16 = 12
------------------
5x+2 24
cross multiply
12(5x+2) = 16 * 24
60x +24 = 384
60x +24-24 = 384-24
60x =360
60x/60=360/60
x =6
To figure AB plug 6 into 5x+2
5x +2
5(6) + 2
30+2
32
AB = 32
I’m pretty sure the answer is c
