Answer 9

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the value of x, we can set up a proportion using the given information:

The ratio of 5:15 is the same as the ratio of x:3.

This can be written as: 5/15 = x/3.

Now, we cross-multiply to solve for x:

(5 * 3) = (15 * x)

15 = 15x

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 15 to isolate x:

15/15 = x

1 = x

Therefore, the value of x is 1 (option c).
