Neither is a proportion.
Neither is a proportion.
16/8=24/12 only
Start Fraction 16 over 8 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 24 over 12 End Fraction only
8/4=12/6 only
Start Fraction 8 over 4 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 12 over 6 End Fraction only
16/8=24/12, 8/4=12/6
Both are proportions.
r u sure,
I apologize for the confusion. Neither of the given expressions is a proportion.

I apologize for the confusion. Upon further analysis, I can confirm that neither of the given expressions is a proportion.
Both 168 = 2412 and 84 = 126 are proportions.
To determine if each pair is a proportion, we need to check if the ratios on both sides of the equation are equal.
For the first pair, 168=?2412, let's simplify both ratios:
168/1 = 168
2412/12 = 201
Since 168 is not equal to 201, this pair is not a proportion.
For the second pair, 84=?126, let's simplify both ratios:
84/1 = 84
126/1 = 126
Since 84 is equal to 126, this pair is a proportion.
Therefore, the answer is:
Neither is a proportion.
