It isn't proportional because it is not reduced to the lowest terms
Instead 20 over 100 = 1 over 5
Hope this helps!
Tonya's homework assignment has four problems a, b, c, d. Her teacher instructed her to simplify each expression and then find out its value. The value of a is 3/28, the value of b is 1/2, the value of c is 15/56 and the value of d is 1/15.
Each problem has two fractions. They are given below and should be simplified.
a) 2/7 × 3/8 = 1/7 × 3/4 = 3/28
b) 2/3 × 3/4 = 1/1 × 1/2 = 1/2
c) 3/7 × 5/8 = 15/56
d) 3/10 × 2/9 = 1/5 × 1/3 = 1/15

Answer:
64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
Step-by-step explanation:
In these kinds of questions it is nice to find how muc of 1 thing there is for every ONE of another. so 8 tablespoons of sugar for 12 ouncesof water you can divide both sides by 8 or 12.
Dividing it by 8 gets 8/8 = 1 tablespoon of sugar for 12/8 = 1.5 ounces of water.
Dividing by 12 gets 8/12 = 2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 12/12 = 1 ounce of water.
Now you can take one or the other and multiply it to fit whichever you want to fit a ratio.
It asks what happens if you use 32 ounces of water, so lets use the ratio where we hae 1 ounce, then multiply everything by 32.
2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 1 ounce of water
Multiply by 32 and you get 32*(2/3) = 64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
