Sagot :

Answer:

6x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{6:2 = 8:x}[/tex]

The equation can be rewritten as:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{6}{2}=\dfrac{8}{x}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2x.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{6}{2}\cdot 2x=\dfrac{8}{x}\cdot 2x}[/tex]

Simplify the equation in simplest form.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{6x=8\cdot 2}\\\\\displaystyle \large{6x=16}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer to this question is 6x = 16.
