[tex] \frac{16}{50} = \frac{x}{156.25}[/tex]

We can simplify 16/50 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2:

[tex]\frac{16}{50} \div \frac{2}{2} = \frac{8}{25}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{25} = \frac{x}{156.25}[/tex]

Cross multiply the fractions:

[tex]8 * 156.25 = 1250[/tex]

[tex]25x = 1250[/tex]

Divide both sides by 25 to get x by itself:

[tex]x = 50[/tex]

The value of x is 50.
