Answer:
Option B) 30
Step-by-step explanation:
If b is the mean proportion between a and c.
Then a : b : : b : c ⇒ a / b = b / c ⇒ b² = ac ----------- Equation 1
Let the mean proportion between 25 and 36 is x,
Here, a=25, b=x and c=36.
Substituting the values in Equation 1 we get ;
x² = 25 * 36
x² = 900
x = √900
x = 30
Therefore, the mean proportional between 25 and 36 is 30.
