A proportion is like a balanced relationship between two quantities. It's like when you have two things that are in harmony with each other, they fit together perfectly. For example, if you have a recipe that calls for 2 cups of flour and 4 cups of sugar, that's a proportion because the ratio of flour to sugar remains the same - for every 2 cups of flour, you need 4 cups of sugar. It's all about keeping things in balance and making sure everything goes together just right.
