What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line to help find the answer. One-half minus 1 and one-fifth A number line going from negative 2 to positive 2 in increments of StartFraction 1 over 10 EndFraction Negative 1 and StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction Negative StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction 1 and StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
