x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

18:24 (comparing the same sides for the similar shapes; 18 and 24) when simplified down is equal to 3:4.

Solving for x :

× 16 = 12

x = 12

OR: Set up a proportion:

×

cross-multiply

16 × 18 = 288

24 × x = 24x

288 = 24x

x = 12

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
