Q.1 Two numbers are in the ratio 3 : 5. If 8 is added to each number, the ratio becomes 2 : 3. Find the numbers. Q2 The work done by (x - 3) men in (2x + 1) days and the work done by (2x + 1) men in (x + 4) days are in the ratio 3 : 10. Find the value of x.
We will learn how to find the mean and third proportional of the set of three numbers. If x, y and z are in continued proportion then y is called the mean proportional (or geometric mean) of x and z. If y is the mean proportional of x and z, y^2 = xz, i.e., y = +\(\sqrt{xz}\).
Third Proportional Example 1. Find the third proportion to 6 and 12? Explanation: To find third proportional of any two numbers let say a and b be two numbers and c is in third proportion with a and b. Then, a : b = b : c. Let, the third proportion to 6 and 12 be a. 6 : 12 :: 12 : a (Product of Extremes= Product of Means) Here, Extremes are= 6 ...
Third Proportional. Similar to the f=definition of the fourth proportional, we define the term known as the third proportional. The third proportional of a proportion is the second term of the mean terms. For example, if we have a:b = c:d, then the term ‘c’ is the third proportional to ‘a’ and ‘b’. Mean Proportional
(1) Find the mean proportion between 4 and 9. (2) Find the third proportional to 12 and 30. Solution: (1) Let the mean proportion be X => 4, X and 9 are in continued proportion. 4: X = X: 9 X × X = 4 x 9 X2 = 36 X = 6 Ans. (2) Let X be the third proportional => 12, 30 and X are in continued proportion
