A proportion is an equation where two ratios are equal and a proportion has given names and these are the extremes and the means. The extreme and the mean allows you to do cross multiplying. In the given proportion above 3/4 is the same with 3 : 4 and 15/20 is 15 : 20. The extremes are 3 and 20, whereas the means are 4 and 15. Therefore the correct answer would be the second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

${a} = {6}^{x}, \: \: b = {6}^{y} ...(given) \\ {a}^{y}. {b}^{x} = 36..(1) \\ pluggig \: the \: values \: of \: a \: and \: b \: in \: (1) \\ ({6}^{x}) ^{y} . ({6}^{y}) ^{x} = {6}^{2} \\ {6}^{xy}.{6}^{xy} = {6}^{2} \\ {6}^{xy + xy} = {6}^{2} \\ {6}^{2xy} = {6}^{2} \\ bases \: are \: equal \: so \: exponentes \: will \: also \: be\\ \: equal \\ \therefore \: 2xy = 2 \\ xy = \frac{2}{2} \\ \huge \red { \boxed{ xy = 1}} \\ hence \: proved \\$
