Do 1/4 and 4/16 form a proportion

Answerino:

yes, a 1:1 proportion

There is a difference between FRACTION and PROPORTION.

Explanation of fraction:

On a card board sheet draw a square or rectangle or any simple shape of your choice. Divide your preferred shape into 4 equal parts. One portion or one part of the divided shape is 1/4. Three (3 ) parts of the divided shape equal 3/4. Also if the shape is divided into twenty (20). One (1) part is 1/20, sixteen(16) parts equal 16/20.

Explanation of Proportion:

If an item is shared in a proportion of 3:4,it means that A gets 3/(3+4) of what is to be shared , that is 3/7 of the bulk item to be shared. B gets 4/(3+4) of what is to be shared, that is 4/7 of the bulk item to be shared.

Also if an item is shared in a proportion of 16:20 , A gets 16/(16+20)=16/36 of Bulk item while B gets 20/(16+20)= 20/36 of the Bulk item being shared.

In effect Fractions and Proportions are related but different.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17
