1/2 : 2/3 = 3/4 : 1

x = 3/4

Explanation:

To work out the value of x, we just need to figure out how to get from 2/3 to 1, and do the same thing with the 1/2.

To get from 2/3 to 1, we can multiply by 1.5:

2/3 * 1.5 = 1

As we multiplied by 1.5 for 2/3, we need to do the same thing with the 1/2:

1/2 * 1.5 = 3/4

Therefore, x = 3/4 and

1/2 : 2/3 = 3/4 : 1
