Riya’s height is 150 cm while her brother is 160 cm tall. If Riya

weighs 45 kg and her brother weighs 48 kg, are their heights in

proportion to their weights.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

No, their heights aren't in proportions to their weight.

Explanation:

If you do the math and put it in proportions, it would look like this:

45    48

150   160

Basically 45/150 would equal 0.3, but 48/160 equals 3.33 (repeatedly). This means they are not proportional.

It can be deduced that the the heights are in proportion to the weight.
