Cross multiplication.
Ex.
3/4=x/64
(cross multiply)
192=4x
(divide by 4x)
48=x
So..
3/4=48/64
When you have two numbers in a proportion, you can use cross-multiplication to find the unknown value or confirm the relationship. Set up the proportion as a fraction (a/b = c/d) and cross-multiply to get ad = bc. If you're solving for a missing number, isolate that variable and solve the equation. Lastly, ensure the proportion remains valid by checking if the ratios are equal.
Missing....? But the answer to find the missing is normally either "algebra" or "find another equation to use."
To set up a proportion problem for a missing value, first identify the two ratios that are being compared. Write them as a fraction, equating the two ratios (e.g., ( \frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} )). If one value is missing, use a variable (like ( x )) to represent it. Then, cross-multiply to solve for the missing value, and simplify the equation to find ( x ).
If a persons leg is in the wrong grave, they use proportions to calculate which percentage of the body is missing.
To find a missing value in a ratio table, first identify the known values and their relationships. Use equivalent ratios by setting up a proportion based on the known values. Cross-multiply to solve for the missing value. Finally, check your work by ensuring that the ratios remain consistent across the table.

180 minus two known angle = missing angle. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find its missing side.
