    Question

    If the third proportion of 14 and 28 is β€œ0.5k”, then

    find the value of (k βˆ’ 10) : (k + 8).
    A 17:20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 9:12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 5:7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 6:10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Third proportion of two numbers β€˜a’ and β€˜b’ is (bΒ²/a).
    So, 0.5k = (28Β²/14) = 56

    Or, 'k' = 112
    Required value = (112 - 10) : (112 + 8) = 102 : 120 = 17 : 20
