Question

Determine if the following ratios form a proportion. 200 ml: 2.5 litre and RS.4: RS.50.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given ratios are in the proportion

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

200 ml: 2.5 litre and RS.4: RS.50.

To find:-

Determine if the following ratios form a proportion. 200 ml: 2.5 litre and RS.4: RS.50.

Solution:-

Given ratio=200ml:2.5 litre

we know that 1 litre=1000ml

=>2.5ml=2.5×1000ml=2500 ml

and the ratio becomes=200:2500=2:25

and

Rs. 4:Rs. 50=4:50=2:25

now they can be written as

2:25 and 2:25

Using formula:-

If the product of extremes =product of means then the given numbers are in the proportion

Product of extremes=2×25=50

Product of means=25×2=50

50=50

Product of extremes=product of means

So, 2,25,2,25 are in the proportion

Answer:-

Given ratios are in the proportion

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

200litre = 2500ml

200 x 50= 10,000

2500 x 4= 10,000

Both the products are same.

200ml: 2.5litre and Rs.40: Rs.50 form a proportion.

Extreme Terms= 200ml and Rs.50

Middle Terms= 2500ml or 2.5litre and Rs.4
