1) Proportion a.

7 : 28 = 2 : 8

That means that the ratio 7 / 28 is equal to the ratio 2 : 8. 

You can verify the equality by simplifying to the simplest form:

     7 : 28 = 1 / 4 simplest form
     2 : 8 = 1 / 4 simplest form, then the proportion is right.

In words that is 7 is to 28 as 1 is to 4 ← answer


2) Proportion b.<span>. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6

</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>You can verify the proportion by simplifiying the second fraction:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     18 / 6 = [18 / 6] / [ 6 / 6] = 3 / 1
</span><span>

</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 9 is to 72 as 2 is to 16 ← answer

</span><span>
</span><span>Proove the proportion:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     9 / 72 = 1 / 8
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     2 / 16 = 1 / 8

</span><span>4) Proportion d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5</span>

In words: 81 is to 9 as 45 is to 5 ← answer


Proove it: 
      81 / 9 = 9
      45 / 9 = 9
