### Grade 8 - Mathematics2.14 Proportion - I

 Two quantities are proportional if they have a same ratio or rate. Proportion: Two ratios set equal Setting two fractions equal Solved by cross multiplying Direct or inverse Example: a/b = c/d cross products ad =cd ad and cb are called the cross products of this proportion. The cross products of any proportion are equal. the product of extremes in a proportion = the product of means in the proportion. Cross products can be used to determine whether two ratios are in proportion. Example: 3/2 = 9/x cross products: 3x = 18 x = 6 Example: q/25 = 52/100 cross products: q x 100 = 25 x 52 100q = 1300 q = 13 Directions: Answer the following questions. Also write at least ten examples of your own.
