Are 25,15,6,5 in proportion ?
Answers
Answer:
32, 48, 140, 210
32 : 48 = 32/48 = 2/3 = 2 : 3
140 : 210 = 140/210 = 2/3 = 2 : 3
So, 32 : 48 = 140 : 210
Therefore, 32, 48, 140, 210 are in proportion.
i.e., 32 : 48 :: 140 : 210
No 25 , 15 , 6 , 5 are not in proportion
Given :
Four numbers 25 , 15 , 6 , 5
To find :
To check whether they are in proportion
Solution :
Step 1 of 3 :
Write down the given numbers
The given numbers are 25 , 15 , 6 , 5
Step 2 of 3 :
Write down the condition for proportion
Four given numbers a , b , c , d are said to be in proportion if product of extreme terms = product of middle terms
That is , a × d = b × c
Step 3 of 3 :
Check whether 25 , 15 , 6 , 5 are in proportion
Extreme terms are 25 & 5
Middle terms are 15 & 6
Product of extreme terms = 25 × 5 = 125
Product of middle terms = 15 × 6 = 90
Thus we observe that
Product of extreme terms ≠ Product of middle terms
Hence we can conclude that 25 , 15 , 6 , 5 are not in proportion
