The answer is 9. If you multiply the denominator of the first fraction by 3, you get the denominator of the second fraction. To find the top number of the second fraction, you also have to multiply the numerator by 3. Therefore the answer would be 9.

24 / 8 = 3

This shows that 8 was multiplied by 3 to get 24.

3 * 3 = 9

Now, we know that 9 solves the proportion. (x = 9)

To check, we can simplify 9/24.

9/24 → 3/8

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
