Step-by-step solution for: Math Ratios Worksheets
To solve the missing proportions, we need to use the property of proportions, which states that in a proportion \(a : b = c : d\), the cross-products are equal: \(a \cdot d = b \cdot c\). Let's solve each problem step by step.
1. 120 : 80 = 90 : ?
- Cross-multiply: \(120 \cdot ? = 80 \cdot 90\)
