Solve the proportion for x

[tex] \frac{x}{3} = \frac{40}{60} \\ 60x = 40 \times 3 \\ 60x = 120 \\ x = \frac{120}{60} \\ \boxed{x = 2}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]{\boxed{ \sf{x = 2}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \\ \sf \: \frac{x}{3} = \frac{40}{60} [/tex]
[tex] \\ \sf \longmapsto \frac{x}{3} = {\cancel{ \frac{40}{60} }}[/tex]
[tex] \\ \sf \longmapsto \frac{x}{3 } = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
[tex] \\ \sf \longmapsto \: x = \frac{2}{ {\cancel{3}}} \times \cancel3[/tex]
[tex] \\ \sf \therefore \: x = 2 [/tex]
[tex] {\underbrace{ \overbrace{ \frak{hope \: it \: helps}}}}[/tex]
