to solve a proportion you have to set up a problem Ike this...
24/65 = 12/x you fill in the missing variable with a letter.most common is x.
the missing variable is the variable you are trying to solve for.
now you do 24x/24 = 780/24 you do 24x and put 24 under it.now do 65 times 12
which is 780.so you put 780 as the other fraction.
now do 780 divided by 24 which is 325.so 325 is
325 is the answer.
That's how you solve proportions.
