Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3 : x + 8 : : 2 : 3
(x + 3) \times 3 = (x + 8) \times 2 \\ 3x + 9 = 2x + 16 \\ 3x - 2x = 16 - 9 \\ x = 7 \\ x + 3 = 7 + 3 = 10 \\ x + 8 = 7 + 8 = 15 \\
10 : 15
2 : 3
Move all terms that don't contain <span>xx</span> to the right side and solve.<span>
Which gets you, x=<span><span>10/7</span></span></span>
