Answer 2

Given:

The proportion = 3: 14 : : 18:84​

To Find:

The extremes of the proportion

Solution:

When expressed in ratio form with a colon, the extremes are the values of the percentage that are afar

For example: In the proportion a : b = c : d, ‘

The first term a’ and the last term ‘d’ are the extremes.

Thus -

Given proportion = 3: 14 : : 18:84​

As per the formula - a : b = c : d

Where

First term = a = 3

Second term = b = 14

Third term = c = 18

Last term = d = 84

Extremes = a and d

= 3 and 84

Answer: The extremes of the proportion are 3 and 84
