Proportionately, if 92 ft² represents 10% of the area of Raya's apartment, the total area is 920 ft².

Proportion describes the equation of two ratios.

We depict proportions using fractions, decimals, or percentages.

The area of Raya's apartment taken up by closets = 92 ft².

The percentage of the area taken up by closets = 10%

The percentage of the entire apartment = 100%

Proportionately, if 10% = 92 ft², 100% representing the total area of the apartment will be equal to 920 ft² (92/10%).

Complete Question is attached.
