Question

Mean proportional between 234and 104

Answer 1

let the mean proportional be x.
then
${x}^{2} = 234 \times 104$
x= √234×104
x= 156

Answer 2

Answer:

The mean proportional between 234 and 104 is 156.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean proportion between two numbers x and y is the square root of the product of these two numbers.

Thus, the mean proportion between two numbers x and y is given by

$\text{Mean proportion }=\sqrt{xy}$

Hence, using this formula, the mean proportional between 234 and 104 is given by

$\text{Mean proportion }=\sqrt{234\cdot 104}\\=\sqrt{24336}\\=156$

The mean proportional between 234 and 104 is 156.
