      C 4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      'x' = √(0.54 × 0.24) = √0.1296 = 0.36

      x + 8.64 = 0.36 + 8.64 = 9

      2x + 5.28 = 2 × 0.36 + 5.28 = 6

      Third proportion of two numbers 'a' and 'b' is (b²/a).

      Required proportion = (6²/9) = 4
