Question

Sate whether the given statement is true or false :

$25$ persons $:130$ persons $=15kg:78kg$

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

To check whether the given ratios are equal or not :

Ratio of $25$ persons to $130$ persons $=\frac{25}{130}=\frac{25÷5}{130÷5}=\frac{5}{26}$

Ratio of $15kg$ to $78kg$ $=\frac{15}{78}=\frac{15÷3}{78÷3}=\frac{5}{26}$

So, two ratios are equal.

Hence, they are in proportion.

Therefore, the given statement is true.
