Tell whether the ratios form a proportion. 92,23 a) Yes b) No

Given We are given two ratios 94 and 23, we need to determine whether they form a proportion or not. Solution Two ratios will form a proportion when they are equal in their simplified fractions. Since 94 has no factor common in numerator and denominator, so it is in simplified form. Also 23 is in simplified form. But 94 is not equal to 23, so they do not form a proportion. Therefore, the correct answer is No.

Given
We are given two ratios $\frac{9}{4}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ , we need to determine whether they form a proportion or not.
Solution
Two ratios will form a proportion when they are equal in their simplified fractions.
Since $\frac{9}{4}$ has no factor common in numerator and denominator, so it is in simplified form. Also $\frac{2}{3}$ is in simplified form. But $\frac{9}{4}$ is not equal to $\frac{2}{3}$ , so they do not form a proportion.
Therefore, the correct answer is No.
