Question

Find the third proportional for the following 12.5ml,0.05L

Answer 1

Answer:

The third proportion is 200 ml.

Step-by-step explanation:

12.5ml

0.05L = 0.05 x 1000 ml = 50ml

Let's assume that, the third proportion is x ml.

Therefore,

$50^2$ = 12.5 times x

∴ x = $\frac{50^2}{12.5}$ = 4 x 50 = 200

∴ the third proportion is 200 ml
