A proportion is an equation that states the equality of two rates or ratios. In other words, a proportion is an equation with a ratio on each side.
Example3/4=6/8
Two quantities are in direct proportion when they increase or decrease in the same ratio. The cross-products method, can be used to solve a proportion problem.

The Cross-Products MethodThe Cross-Products Method
(read “a is to b as c is to d”)
Means-extremes property:
Product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes where a, d are the extremes and b, c are the means.
