Answer:
No, the given ratios are not in proportion.
We are given the following ratios;
48 kg : 6 kg and 25 g : 200 g
Firstly, making both the ratios in same units;
1 kg = 1000 g
48 kg = 48 1000 = 48000 g
Similarly, 6 kg = 6 1000 = 6000 g
Now, the accurate ratios are;
48000 g : 6000 g and 25 g : 200 g
To conclude that the ratios are in proportion, the condition is that;
Product of means = Product of extremes
6000 x 25 is not equal to 48000 x 200
150000 is not equal to 9600000

48kg=48000g
6kg=6000g
48000:6000::25:200
48000*200::6000*25
9600000::150000
No,these ratios are not in proportion because the product of means is not equal to the product of extreams .
