Answer:

x= 40

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion, so you have to cross multiply- meaning the multiplication of the diagonals are equal. So, you need to cross multiply first.

12/x=1.8/6

12(6)= 1.8(x)

72=1.8x

Now, this becomes a simple algebra equation.

72=1.8x

40=x

Thus, x is 40.

Hope this helped! :D
