|
How do you find the product of
a/b = c/d |
Multiply diagonally
a x d and b x c |
|
Cross Products
|
the cross multipier in the proportion
a/b = c/d , are ad and bc |
|
Can the proportion
a/b = c/d , also can be written; ac = bd |
True
|
|
How do you determine if a proportion is true?
|
check to see if the cross products are equal
a/b = c/d ; a x d = b x c |
|
How do you find the unknown in a proportion?
|
four numbers are used in a proportion. If any three of these numbers are known the fourth can be found:
5/9 = x/63 5 x 63 = 9x 315 = 9x 315/9 = 9x/9 35 = x |
|
