Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

Mean proportion = 60

● Explanation -

Given the 2 numbers are -

x = 48

y = 75

Mean proportion of 2 numbers is calculated by -

Mean proportion = √(xy)

Mean proportion = √(48 × 75)

Mean proportion = √(3600)

Mean proportion = √(60 × 60)

Mean proportion = 60

Hence, mean proportion of 48 and 75 is 60.

Best luck dear. Hope this is helpful to you...
