GIVEN:-

If The Terms 7,a, 28,8 are in proportion.

TO FIND:-

The value of a.

SOLUTION:-

It is said they are in proportion.

So,

\large{\boxed{\bf{\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{c}{d}}}}

where,

  • a is 7
  • b is a
  • c is 28
  • d is 8

Putting the values,

\large\implies{\sf{\dfrac{7}{a}=\dfrac{28}{8}}}

By cross multiplying,

\large\implies{\sf{7\times8=28\times\:a}}

\large\implies{\sf{56=28a}}

\large\implies{\sf{\dfrac{56}{28}=a}}

\large\implies{\sf{\dfrac{\cancel{56}}{\cancel{28}}=a}}

\large\implies{\sf{2=a}}

\large\therefore\boxed{\bf{a=2}}

VERIFICATION:-

\large\implies{\sf{\dfrac{7}{2}=\dfrac{28}{8}}}

By cross multiplying,

\large\implies{\sf{7\times8=28\times\:2}}

\large\implies{\sf{56=56}}

\large\therefore\boxed{\bf{LHS=RHS}}

Hence verified.

The value of a is 2.
