1. **State the problem:** Solve the proportion $$\frac{24}{4} = \frac{x}{11}$$ to find the value of $x$. 2. **Formula used:** In a proportion $$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}$$, the cross products are equal, so $$a \times d = b \times c$$. 3. **Apply the formula:** $$24 \times 11 = 4 \times x$$ 4. **Calculate the left side:** $$264 = 4x$$ 5. **Solve for $x$ by dividing both sides by 4:** $$\frac{264}{\cancel{4}} = \frac{4x}{\cancel{4}}$$ 6. **Simplify:** $$66 = x$$ 7. **Final answer:** $$x = 66$$ Note: The user's answer $x=60$ is incorrect; the correct value is $66$.
