Answer:

d.
(36)/(54) and
(6)/(9)

Explanation:

If two proportion
(a)/(b) and
(c)/(d) are proportional

Then product of a and d is equal to product of b and c

a.
(6)/(7) and
(16)/(21)

Product of 6 and 21=
6* 21=126

product of 7 and 16=
7* 16=112

Hence, given fractions are not proportional.

Option a is false

b.
(21)/(36) and
(14)/(25)


14* 36=504


21* 25=525

Hence, option b is false.

c.
(14)/(35) and
(21)/(42)


14* 42=588


35* 21=735

Hence, option c is false.

d.
(36)/(54) and
(6)/(9)


36* 9=324


54* 6=324

Given fractions are proportional

Hence, option d is true.
