Question

(6'3) (9'2) x1=6/y1=3 x2=9/y2=2

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 6 : 8 and 12 : 16

6 : 8 = 6/8 = 3/4

12 : 16 = 12/16 = 3/4

Thus, the ratios 6 : 8 and 12 : 16 are equal.

Therefore, they form a proportion.

(ii) 24 : 28 and 36 : 48

24 : 28 = 24/28 = 6/7

36 : 48 = 36/48 = 3/4

Thus, the ratios 24 : 28 and 36 : 48 are unequal.

Therefore, they do not form a proportion.
