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>In words: 3 is to q as 18 is to 6 ← answer
</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>3) Proportion c. 9 : 72 = 2 : 16
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 9 is to 72 as 2 is to 16 ← answer
</span><span>
</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>
</span><span>
</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

Q: can you find the volume of the tank based on the opposite sides as the bases. 


This one was a tricky one lol. 

To find volume you need a formula: 

Formula for volume varies on the shape of the object.

<span><span>Cube = a 3<span>a is the side length

</span></span><span>Rectangular prism = a * b * c<span>a, b, c are the length, width, and height

</span></span><span>Cylinder = π * r 2 * h<span><span>r is the radius of the circular base</span><span>h is the height

for this one you would need the Rectangular prism formula. 

A: No you cannot find the volume because you need length, width, and height to figure out the volume of the rectangular prism. 

Hope this helped! :)
