If the numbers a, 52, 14, b are in proportion, what is the value of a*b?The first one to answer, I’ll mark it the brainliest....plz hurry up!!

Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 6 : 8 and 12 : 16

6 : 8 = 6/8 = 3/4

12 : 16 = 12/16 = 3/4

Thus, the ratios 6 : 8 and 12 : 16 are equal.

Therefore, they form a proportion.

(II) 24 : 28 and 36 : 48

24 : 28 = 24/28 = 6/7

36 : 48 = 36/48 = 3/4

Thus, the ratios 24 : 28 and 36 : 48 are unequal.

Therefore, they do not form a proportion.
