Let the fourth term be ‘x’.
ATQ,
18:27: :32:x
Where, 18 and x are known as the - extreme terms of a proportion. And 27 and 32 are known as the mean terms of a proportion.
We know that:
Product of extremes= Product of means.
Therefore,
18•(x)= 27•32
x= (27•32)/18
Ans. x= 48
Answer: The fourth term of the proportion is 48.
