Solution

Checking whether the numbers are in proportion or not
The given numbers are $36, 54, 60, 90$
We know that,
Four terms are said to be an in proportion if
Product of extreme $=$ Product of means
Product of extremes $= 36 \times 90$
$= 3240$
Product of means $= 54 \times 60$
$= 3240$
Since, $36 \times 90 = 54 \times 60$
Hence, the given numbers are in proportion
