If 3 → 12, then 7 → X

Solve a proportion of the form A : B = C : X, the classic rule of three used in everyday math, cooking, and conversions.

How it works

Cross-multiply: X = (B × C) / A. The rule assumes a direct proportion between A→B and C→X.

Example

If 3 → 12, then 7 → 28 (since 12 × 7 / 3 = 28).
