Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be x
acc to question
12+x:22+x::42+x:72+x
(12+x)(72+x)=(42+x)(22+x)
12*72+12x+72x+x^2=42*22+42x+22x+x^2
864+94x+x^2=924+64x+x^2
94x-64x=924-864+x^2-x^2
20x=60
x=60÷20
x=3
therefore 3 is added to 12,22,42,72, to get proportional
verification....
12+3:22+3::42+3:72+3
15:25::45:75
3:5::3:5
