GIVEN:

We are given the following expression;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 10:33, \\ x:4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Required;

To calculate the value of x.

Step-by-step solution;

We shall use the information provided to set up an equation as follows;

[tex]\begin{gathered} If; \\ 10:33,\text{ }and\text{ }x:4 \\ are\text{ }the\text{ }same\text{ }proportion, \\ \\ Then; \\ \frac{10}{33}=\frac{x}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

We now cross multiply and simplify;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{10\times4}{33}=x \\ \\ \frac{40}{33}=x \\ x=1.21212121212 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, we now have;

ANSWER:

[tex]x=1.21[/tex]
