Question
Find the third proportional to 0.24, 0.6
✓
Answer
Let $x$ be the third proportional to $0.24,0.6$ then $0.24: 0.6:: 0.6: x$
$
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore 0.24 \times x =0.6 \times 0.6 \\
& x =\frac{0.6 \times 0.6}{0.24} \\
& =1.5 . \\
& \therefore \text { Third proportional }=1.5 .
\end{aligned}
