Proportional quantities are always in the same lowest/simplest ratios


\begin{gathered} Th\text{ e ratio }\frac{6}{4\text{ slices of pizza}}\text{ and }\frac{3}{2\text{ slices of pizza}}\text{ are part of a proportional relationship because} \\ (3)/(2)=(3)/(2) \end{gathered}
\text{if you reduce }\frac{6}{4\text{ slices of pizza}}\text{ it is equal to }(3)/(2)
\text{If you reduce }\frac{3}{2\text{ slices of pizza }},\text{ it is equal to }(3)/(2)

so both statements are proportional quantities
