Answer:

64 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! This is a proportion problem

52 is a smaller proportion to 78.

X is a smaller proportion to 96.

Since this both have the same ratio scale, we can set them equal to each other, remembering to put the smaller number from each one on the top.

(52/78)=(x/96)

Now we can just solve for X:

(96*52)/(78) = 64 = X

Our answer is in feet so 64 feet is the distance between the lions and the monkeys.
It is 64 units I really don’t want to get into detail just take my word
