To solve the proportion \( \frac{22}{32} = \frac{a}{64} \), you can use cross-multiplication:

\[ 22 \cdot 64 = 32 \cdot a \]

Now, calculate \( 22 \cdot 64 \):

\[ 22 \cdot 64 = 1408 \]

So, we have:

\[ 1408 = 32 \cdot a \]

Next, solve for \( a \):

\[ a = \frac{1408}{32} \]

Now, calculate \( \frac{1408}{32} \):

\[ a = 44 \]

Thus, the solution is:

\[ a = 44 \]
