$x = \frac{24}{7}$ $x= 24/7$

$\frac{12}{14} = \frac{x}{4}$ $12/14 = x/4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{12}{14} \cdot 4 = \frac{x}{4} \cdot 4$ $=> 12/14 *4 = x/4*4$

$\Rightarrow \frac{12 \cdot 4}{14} = \frac{x \cdot 4}{4}$ $=> (12*4)/14 = (x*4)/4$

$=> 48/14 =(x*cancel(color(red)4))/cancel(color(red)4)$

$=> 48/14 = x =>$ That is $x= 48/14$

On simplifying $48/14$ it becomes $24/7$

That is, $x= 24/7$
