Answer:

Not Proportional.

Explanation:

We are given a pair of fractions/ratios 3/7 and 8/28.

We need to check if 3/7 and 8/28 are in proportion or not.

In order to check if those are in proportion, we need to convert both denominators as same denominator.

Second fraction 8/28 has 28 in it's denominator.

Let us convert denominator of 3/7 as 28.

In order to convert denominator 7 as 28, we need to multiply top and bottom of fraction 3/7 by 4, we get


(3 * 4)/(7 * 4) = (12)/(28)

We can see that 12/28 ≠ 2/28.

Therefore, pair of ratios 3/7 and 8/28 are Not Proportional.
