Answer 2

Answer:

The value of p and q is 2 and 16

P= 2 , and q= 16

after solving the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given in the question

p, 4,8 and q are in continued proportion.

therefore we can write it as.

p/4=4/8=8/q

So,we can write for p

p/4= 4/8

therefore, by Cross multiplication we get

8p = 16

p= 16/8= 2

therefore p=2

similarly

4/8 = 8/q

4q=64

q= 64/4

q = 16

 therefore

values of p and q are 2 and 16 respectively.

P = 2 and q = 16
