Answer: "Not Proportional" .
_______________________________
Given the following ratios:
_______________________________

"
(3)/(7)" and "
(8)/(28)" ;

Are these ratios proportional??

Note: "
(8)/(28)" can be simplified, as follows:
___________________________________


(8)/(28) = (8÷4) / (28÷4) =
(2)/(7) .
___________________________________

"
(3)/(7)"
\\eq "
(2)/(7)" ;

So; the given ratios are NOT PROPORTIONAL.

They aren't proportional. Divide them both. They have different decimal values.
