Solve the proportion. [tex]\bf{\dfrac{2}{x}=\dfrac{4}{34}[/tex].

[tex]\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{This problem has been solved!}}[/tex]

We multiply 2 by 34, and x by 4 (this is known as cross multiplication)

[tex]\bf{2*34=4*x}[/tex] | simplify

[tex]\bf{68=4x}[/tex] | solve in terms of x

[tex]\bf{17=x}[/tex]

[tex]\rule{300}{1.7}[/tex]

[tex]\bf{Result:}[/tex]

              [tex]\bf{17=x}[/tex]
