Respuesta :

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following ratios. We are to express them in their simplest forms

15:12

= 15/12

= (3*5)/(3*4)

= 3/3 * 5/4

= 5/4

b) 42:1

= 42/1

= 42

Given that  2:x :: 4:6​

2/x = 4/6

Cross multiply

4x = 2*6

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

Hence the value of x is 3
