it can be also written as a:b= c:d

The four part a,b,c,d can be divided into two groups

• means : b and c are means
• extremes: a and d are extremes

based on above discussion

in proportion 3/15=12/60

3 is in position of a

and

60 is in position of d

Thus, 3 and 60 are extremes in 3/15=12/60 proportion.
