Answer:

Option c. 8:12 = x:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us used the proportion if can satisfied to solve for the width. 8:12 = x:4

  • x = 8(12) ÷ (x)4
  • x = 96 ÷ 4
  • x = 24

Therefore the proportion is satisfied to solve the problem, where the width of the car is 24.

Checking:

Let's check if both proportions will have the same product. (8:12 = 24:4)

  • 8 × 12 = 96
  • 24 × 4 = 96

96 = 96

They are now proportional!
