Remark

You have to assume that this can be solved by using a proportion. A proportion is 2 equal ratios. Three parts of the 2 ratios must be known and your job is to find the 4th one.

Equation

w*L/C1 = w1*L1 / x

Solution

w = 8

L = 10

w1 = 20

L1  = 25

C1 = 449

C2= x

Solution

8*10/440 = 20*25/x          Combine

80/440 = 500 / x               Cross Multiply

80x = 440*500                  Combine

80x = 220000                  Divide by 80

x = 220000/80

Answer

x = 2750
