0.75/x = 5/8 By cross multiplying, we get 5x = 0.75*8 Therefore, x= 6/5 = 1.2

BHARGAV SAI RAYANA

0.75 : x :: 5:8 is a proportion. If two ratios are equal then it is called a proportion. The above proportion can now be represented as (0.75/x) = (5/8)on cross multiplication, we will get (0.75 * 8 ) = (5 *x) --> 6 = (5*x) --> x = 6/5 --> x = 1.2
