Find the Fourth proportion of 6, 8, and 10.

Step: 1

Here a = 6, b = 8, c = 10 and d = x. First, write in proportion form \$a/b :: c/d\$ i.e., \$6/8 :: 10/x\$.

Explanation:

Given proportion a = 6, b = 8, c = 10 and d = x. Let’s get started! Just write the proportion like this: \$a/b :: c/d\$. For instance, you can use \$6/8 :: 10/x\$.

Step: 2

Now, to find the fourth proportion, solve for x equals \$(10 times 8)/6\$ = 13.33. So, the fourth ratio is 13.33.

Explanation:

In this step, we find the fourth proportion using x equals \$(10 times 8)/6\$ and get 13.33 as the answer. The fourth ratio equals 13.33.
