Yes 20, 25, 12, 15 are in proportion

Given :

Four numbers 20, 25, 12, 15

To find :

To check whether they are in proportion

Solution :

Step 1 of 3 :

Write down the given numbers

The given numbers are 20, 25, 12, 15

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 20, 25, 12, 15 are in proportion

Extreme terms are 20 & 15

Middle terms are 25 & 12

Product of extreme terms = 20 × 15 = 300

Product of middle terms = 25 × 12 = 300

Thus we observe that

Product of extreme terms = Product of middle terms

Hence we can conclude that 20, 25, 12, 15 are in proportion
