Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

First, let's set up the equation using the ratio given:

x/6 = y/18

Since the new value of y is 3, we can substitute this into the equation:

x/6 = 3/18

Now we can simplify the equation by dividing both sides by 3:

x/6 = 1/6

Finally, we can solve for x by multiplying both sides by 6:

x = 1

Therefore, the value of x is 1.
