- 1. (c) 2 : 3 — Divide both by 4: 2 : 3.
- 2. (d) percentage — A comparison to 100 is a percentage.
- 3. (a) yes — 3 × 15 = 5 × 9 = 45, so yes.
- 4. (b) ₹25 — 100 ÷ 4 = ₹25.
- 5. A comparison of two like quantities by division, written a : b.
- 6. When they are equal, i.e. a × d = b × c.
- 7. A ratio compares two quantities of the same kind by division and is written a : b, read 'a to b'; for instance, 6 boys to 4 girls is 6 : 4, which simplifies to 3 : 2 by dividing both parts by 2. A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal, written a : b :: c : d. To check whether two ratios form a proportion, we cross-multiply: the ratios are equal when a × d = b × c. For example, 2 : 3 and 4 : 6 are in proportion because 2 × 6 = 3 × 4 = 12. Ratios and proportions let us compare and scale quantities fairly.
