how do i solve 8 is to 15 as 24 is to __________

Cross multiply and solve for x.

8/15 * 24/x

I don't understand how to do it can you show me.

8/15 * 24/x

8x = 15*24
8x = 360
x = 45

You can prove it by reducing 24/45 to 8/15.

To solve the analogy "8 is to 15 as 24 is to ________," you need to find the missing number that follows the same pattern as the given numbers.

The analogy "8 is to 15" means that there is a relationship between these two numbers. To find this relationship, you can divide 15 by 8:

15 ÷ 8 = 1.875

The result is approximately 1.875.

Now, we can use this ratio to find the missing number. Multiply the second given number, 24, by the ratio we just calculated:

24 × 1.875 = 45

Therefore, the missing number in the analogy "8 is to 15 as 24 is to ________" is 45.
