Find the ratio between the fourth proportional of 12, 16, 6 and the third proportional of 4, 6. |
4 : 3 3 : 2 11 : 5 8 : 9 |
8 : 9 |
Forth proportion to a, b , c = $\frac{b\;\times\;c}{1}$ Fourth proportion to 12, 16, 6 = \(\frac{16\; \times\; 6}{12}\) = 8 Third proportion to a, b = $\frac{b\;\times\;b}{a}$ Third proportion to 4, 6 = \(\frac{6\; \times\; 6}{4}\) = 9 Ratio = 8 : 9
