we are given:
Shifting, m to the R.H.S (numerator) and shifting 32 to the L.H.S denominator.
now we get fraction:
again ,
Shifting 52 to the L.H.S numerator , thereby leaving the unknown m at the R.H.S
now solving,
we get m
therefore the proportion is :
note: on dividing each of the values at L.H.S and R.H.S we obtain the same value of 0.61, so L.H.S = R.H.S and it is in proportion
