Answer 2

Given: $36 : 54 \ and\ 72 : 108$

We have to find the above numbers are in proportion or not.

• As we know that if two sets of given numbers are increasing or decreasing in the same ratio, then the ratios are said to be directly proportional to each other.
• By using the above concept, we are solving the given problem.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

$36 : 54 \ and\ 72 : 108$

$\Rightarrow \frac{36}{54} =\frac{2}{3} \\\\\Rightarrow \frac{72}{108} =\frac{2}{3}$

Thus, the ratios of $36 : 54 \ and\ 72 : 108$are equal.

Therefore, they form a proportion.

Hence, $36 : 54 \ and\ 72 : 108$are in proportion.
