NO THEY ARE NOT IN PROPORTION
No 3 , 4 , 15 , 18 are not in proportion
Given :
Four numbers 3 , 4 , 15 , 18
To find :
To check whether they are in proportion
Solution :
Step 1 of 3 :
Write down the given numbers
The given numbers are 3 , 4 , 15 , 18
Step 2 of 3 :
Write down the condition for proportion
Four given numbers a , b , c , d are said to be in proportion if product of extreme terms = product of middle terms
That is , a × d = b × c
Step 3 of 3 :
Check whether 3 , 4 , 15 , 18 are in proportion
Extreme terms are 3 & 18
Middle terms are 4 & 15
Product of extreme terms = 3 × 18 = 54
Product of middle terms = 4 × 15 = 60
Thus we observe that
Product of extreme terms ≠ Product of middle terms
Hence we can conclude that 3 , 4 , 15 , 18 are not in proportion
