Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

We have: \frac{20}{12}=\frac{15}{x}

First, we can simplify 20/12 by 4

\frac{5}{3}=\frac{15}{x}

this is a proportion, so we can cross multiply (multiply 5 by x and 3 by 15)

5x=45

divide by 5

x=9

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we first have to solve the equation given in the question:

\frac{20}{12} = \frac{15}{x}

20x = 15 \cdot 12

x = \frac{180}{20}

x = 9

Therefore, x = 9.

Hope this helped!
