The tax on a property with an assessed value of &66,000 is $675. Using a proportion, find the tax on a property with an assessed value of $109,000
Let x be the tax on a property with an assessed value of $109,000.
Using the given information, we can set up a proportion:
$66,000 is to $675 as $109,000 is to x.
$66,000 / $675 = $109,000 / x
(66,000 * x) / 675 = 109,000
66,000x = 109,000 * 675
66,000x = 73,575,000
x = 73,575,000 / 66,000
x = $1,115
Therefore, the tax on a property with an assessed value of $109,000 is $1,115.
