Question

Find the value of $x$ such that it makes the given fraction equivalent.
$\frac{4}{13}$ = $\frac{x}{78}$

• A. 32
• B. 24
• C. 28
• D. 16

Answer 1

The correct option is B 24

Given,
$\frac{4}{13}$ = $\frac{x}{78}$
$\Rightarrow$ 13 $\times$ $x$ = 4 $\times$ 78
$\Rightarrow$ $x$ = $\frac{4\times 78}{13}$
$\Rightarrow$ $x$ = 4 $\times$ 6
$\Rightarrow$ $x$ = 24
