Question

determine if the following are in proportion
24, 28,36,48.​

Answer 1

Answer:

24, 28,36,48 are not in the Proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

Numbers 24, 28,36,48.

To find:-

Determine if the following are in proportion

24, 28,36,48.?

Solution:-

Given numbers are 24, 28,36,48.

Extremes = 24 and 48

Product of extremes = 24×48= 1152

Product of extremes = 1152--------(1)

Means = 28 and 36

Product of means = 28×36 = 1008

Product of means = 1008----------(2)

From (1)&(2)

Product of extremes ≠ Product of means

We know that

If the product of extremes is equal to the product of means then the numbers are in the Proportion.

But here,

Product of extremes ≠ Product of means

So, Given numbers are not in the Proportion.

Answer:-

24, 28,36,48 are not in the Proportion.

Used formula:-

• If the product of extremes is equal to the product of means then the numbers are in the Proportion.

Answer 2

Given :-

Four Numbers 24 , 28 , 36 , 48 .

To Find :-

Are the Given Numbers are in proportion or not ?

Used Concepts:-

• If product of extremes is equal to product of means . Then the given numbers are in proportion .

Solution :-

The given Numbers :- 24 , 28 , 36, 48 .

Here , Extremes :- 24 and 48

Means :- 28 and 36

Product of Extremes = 24 × 48

= 1152

Product of Means = 28 × 36

= 1008

Here , Product of Extremes is not equal to the product of means .

So , The given numbers are not in proportion.
