<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, there are 684 islands, and 36 members, hence the number of islands per member is given by:
n = 684/36 = 19.
Which means that option c is correct.

4. c=21-4
Answer: c=17
There will be 18 girls in a group of 16 boys.
you divide 72 by 16 and get 4.5.
then you divide 81 by 4.5 and get 18.
That is how you get 18 girls in a group of 16 boys.
Hope that helped.
