Question

8. Find the third proportional to 3 and 9.​

Answer 1

Answer:

We can write it as a:b = c:d. The quantity c is known as third proportional to the quantities a, b, and d. For example, if we write the quantities 7,8,9, and 10 in the proportional form 7:8 :: 9:10, then 9 is the third proportional to 7, 8, and 10.
