Answer:
? = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Knowing that 3/5 and 24/40 is equal</em>
<em>Therefore we can either use:</em>
<em>3/5 = ?/60 or 24/40 = ?/60</em>
<em>I will use 3/5 = ?/60</em>
<em>Let ? = x</em>
<em>Hence we have</em>
<em>3/5 = x/60</em>
<em>Multiply both sides by 10</em>
<em>6 = x/6</em>
<em>Multiply both sides by 6</em>
<em>x = 36</em>
<em>Therefore, the question mark = 36</em>

<em>Let's check the answer by Simplifying the fraction:</em>
<em>3/5 = 36/60</em>
<em>3/5 is in already simplify</em>
<em>36/60 simplify = 3/5</em>
<em />
<em>3/5 = 3/5</em>
<em>Thus, the question mark = 36</em>
