Answer: the product of both the means and the extremes is 8.

Explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem first you have to calculate the product of the means of the proportion 1/2 = 4/8.

The means, in this case, are the numbers 2 and 4.

so:

2x4 =8

Then, you have to calculate the product of the extremes. In this case, the extremes of the proportion are numbers 1 and 8.

1x 8= 8

The answer to the question is 8.

the product of both the means and the extremes is 8.
