RATIO AND PROPORTION
.c
om
Ratio : The ratio of two qualities a and b in the same units, is the fraction a/b and we
write it as
a:b.
In the ratio a:b, A is known as the antecedent and b is known as the consequent.
Ex: The ratio 5:9 represents 5/9 with antecedent=5 , consequent=9
ak
s
Proportion: The equality of two ratios is called proportion. If a:b=c:d, we write a:b::c:d
and we say that a,b,c and d are in proportion. Here a and b are called extremes, while b
and c are called mean terms.
Product of means=product of extremes
Thus, a:b::c:d or (𝑏𝑏 × π‘π‘) = (π‘Žπ‘Ž × π‘‘π‘‘)

Compounded Ratio
Ratios are compounded by multiplying together the antecedents for a new antecedent,
and the consequents for a new consequent.
Ex- Find the compounded ratio of the following ratios3:4, 2:3, 4:5 and 3:8
Sol:
The required ratio =

Important terms:
Fourth proportional: If a:b::c:d, then d is called the fourth proportional to a,b and c.
Third proportional: If a:b::b:c, then c is called third proportional to a and b.
Mean proportional: Mean proportional between a and b is SQRT(a*b).
Compounded ratio: The compounded ratio of the ratios (a:b), (c:d),(e:f) is (ace:bdf).
Duplicate Ratio: If the given ratio is (a:b) then its duplicate ratio is (π‘Žπ‘Ž2 : 𝑏𝑏 2 ).

Important Properties:
1. Invertendo. If a : b :: c : d then b : a :: d : c
Alternendo. If a : b :: c : d then a : c :: b : d
Componendo. If a : b :: c : d then (a +b) : b :: (c +d) : d
Dividendo. If a : b :: c : d then (a -b) : b :: (c -d) : d
Componendo and Dividendo.
If a : b :: c : d then (a +b) : (a -b) :: (c +d) : (c -d)
i.e., a/b = c/d => (a +b)/(a - b) = (c +d)/(c +d)
6. If a/b = c/d = e/f = ..., then each ratio = (a +c +e +...)/(b +d +f +...)
Which is same as ( pa + qc + re +. . . )/( pb + qd + rf + . . . )
i.e
a/b = c/d = e/f
=(a +c +e +...)/(b +d +f +...)
= ( pa + qc + re +. . . )/( pb + qd + rf + . . . )

Some important terms used:
1. Ratio of equality : If the antecedent is equal to the consequent in a ratio then the ratio is
known as the ratio of equality. Eg – 6:6
2. Ratio of greater inequality : If the antecedent is greater than the consequent in a ratio
then the ratio is known as the ratio of greater inequality. Eg – 11:6
3. Ratio of less inequality : If the antecedent is less than the consequent in a ratio then the
ratio is known as the ratio of less inequality. Eg – 6:11

Proportional Division
The process by which a quantity may be divided into parts which bear a given ratio to one
another, is called proportional division and the parts are known as proportional parts.
For Example : Divide the quantity β€˜a’ in the ratio x:y:z then
First Part =
π‘₯π‘₯
π‘₯π‘₯+𝑦𝑦+𝑧𝑧

VARIATION:

26. A sum of money is to be distributed among A, B, C, D in the proportion of 5 : 2 : 4 : 3. If C
gets Rs. 1000 more than D, what is B's share?
.e
Sol: Let the shares of A, B, C and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively.
Then, 4x - 3x = 1000
Or x = 1000.
w
B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.
