Claire correctly solved the proportion x/4 = 36/16 for x using cross products to get the equation 16x = 144 and then dividing both sides by 16 to get x =9 . She showed that she can use cross products to solve the proportion because she gets the same answer if the solves it as shown

what property allowed her to go from x/4= 36/16 to x/4 x = 36/16 x 4?

The cross product property

Step-by-step explanation:

The cross product property also known as cross multiplication is a method in math that is most of the time used in solving problems involving ratios usually in a big X form across the equal sign between two ratios.

It is done by multiplying the numerator of the left ratio by the denominator of the right with an equal to the multiplication of the numerator of the right ratio by the denominator of the left.
