Solution

Explanation:

Four quantities are said to be in proportion when,

Productofextremesterms=Productofmeansterms,

The first and last terms are called extremes terms, while the second and third terms are called middle or means terms.

Product of extremes terms =0.4×3.5=1.40

Product of means terms =0.5×2.8=1.40

Therefore, Productofextremesterms=Productofmeansterms

Hence, 0.4,0.5,2.8,3.5 are proportional.
