To find the missing number, we can set up a proportion.
Let x be the missing number.
We can set up the proportion:
24/x = 2/5.
To solve for x, we can cross multiply.
Cross multiplying, we get:
5 * 24 = 2 * x.
Simplifying, we have:
120 = 2x.
Dividing both sides by 2, we have:
x = 60.
Therefore, the missing number is 60.
