Answer:

XY = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 3 to 2 meaning that the sides of the triangle ABC and triangle AYY are in a ratio of 3 to 2.   You are comparing the big triangle to the small triangle and the sides are compared the same way.

3:2 = 24:XY                  

 3/2 = 24/XY

 3 XY = 48

 XY = 48/3

  XY = 16
