Solve proportions using cross products 32/12=64/k

Answer 1

To solve the proportion using cross products, you need to multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction and set it equal to the product of the denominator of the first fraction and the numerator of the second fraction:
(32)(k) = (12)(64)

Now, simplify the equation:
32k = 768

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 32 to solve for k:
k = 24
