= 1:2

Please mark me as brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

Given

Out of 200 persons in a town 120 are tea drinkers

So proportion = 120/200

=3/5

Out of 500 person in another town 240 are tea drinkers

So proportion = 240/500

=12/25

Since 3/5 is not equal to 12/25

the proportion of tea drinkers in the two towns is not equal
