Answer:

[tex] \frac{6}{x} = \frac{4}{8} [/tex]

Multiple across equal sign (Denominator x Nominator and vise versa)

[tex]4x = 6 \times 8[/tex]

[tex]4x = 48[/tex]

[tex]x = 48 \div 4[/tex]

[tex]x = 12[/tex]

6/x = 4/8

Cross multiply:

6*8 = 4 *x

48 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 48 /4

x = 12
