The correct Answer is:
To fill in the blank in the statement "If two ratios are ______, then they are in proportion," we need to determine the condition under which two ratios can be considered proportional. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Ratios**: - A ratio compares two quantities. For example, the ratio of A to B can be written as A:B or A/B. 2. **Identifying the Condition for Proportion**: - Two ratios, A:B and C:D, are said to be in proportion if the cross products are equal. This means that A/B = C/D is equivalent to A * D = B * C. 3. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, if two ratios are **equal**, then they are in proportion. ### Final Answer: If two ratios are **equal**, then they are in proportion. ---
