Question

If $\frac{5}{8}=\frac{20}{p}$, then value of $p$ is

• A. $23$
• B. $2$
• C. $32$
• D. $16$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$32$

We have, $\frac{5}{8}=\frac{20}{p}$

$\therefore 5\times p=20\times 8$

$5\times p=5\times 4\times 8$

$5\times p=5\times 32$

On comparing, we get

$p=32$

Hence, option C is correct.
