Question

Do the ratios 15 cm to 3cm and 15 seconds to 3 minutes form a proportion? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

No. The ratios don't form a proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

15cm/3cm....(i)

15seconds/(3*60)seconds.....(ii)

cm and seconds don't matter much but the numbers do

15/3 is not equal to 15/180

on further simplification

5 is not equal to 1/20.
