solve the proportion- 16/50=x/156.25
\[\huge \frac{16}{50}= \frac{x}{156.25}\]
\[\huge \frac{16}{50}= \frac{x}{156.25}\] \[\huge \frac{16}{50}= \frac{x}{156.25} \rightarrow x= \frac { 16 \times 156.25}{50}\] \[\huge \rightarrow x= 16 \times 3.125 = 50\]

wow! can you put it in simple words lol @dpasingh
\[x=(16\times156.25)/50\]
thanks @Shirin74
You have the proportion... \[\large \frac{16}{50} = \frac{x}{156.25}\] You cross multiply...do 16 times 156.25 and then 50 times x Now you have \[\large 2500 = 50x\] Just divide both sides by 50 to get \[\large x = 50\]
thanks @johnweldon1993
Sure... Carry out the cross multiplication , so it would be 50*x = 16* 156.25 now divide both sides by 50 to find x= 16* 156.25 / 50 next divide 156.25/ 50 we get 3.125 multiply 16 by 3.125 to get 50 as answer hence x= 50
thanks! @dpasingh
