Determine if 2.5/10 = 12 48 or 2.5 over 2 = 12 24 is a proportion both are proportionate neither is proportionate 2.5 / 10 = 12 .48 or 2.5 / 2 = 12/24

Answer 1

Both are proportionate.

To determine if two fractions form a proportion, you can cross multiply and see if the results are equal. For the first pair of fractions (2.5/10 = 12/48):

Cross multiplying, we get:
2.5 * 48 = 120
10 * 12 = 120

Since both results are equal, 2.5/10 = 12/48 is a proportion.

For the second pair of fractions (2.5/2 = 12/24):

Cross multiplying, we get:
2.5 * 24 = 60
2 * 12 = 24

Since both results are equal, 2.5/2 = 12/24 is a proportion as well.
