Answer

$x = \frac{54}{11}$

Work Step by Step

We solve a proportion by first eliminating fractions. We use the cross products property where we multiply the numerator of one fraction with the denominator of the other, and vice versa: $11x = 54$ Divide each side by $11$ to solve for x: $x = \frac{54}{11}$
