Question

do the ratios \\(\frac{1}{3}\\) and \\(\frac{8}{9}\\) form a proportion?
yes
no

Explanation:

Step1: Recall proportion definition

A proportion means two ratios are equal, i.e., $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}$ if $a\times d = b\times c$.

Step2: Check cross - products

For $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{8}{9}$, calculate $1\times9 = 9$ and $3\times8=24$.
Since $9
eq24$, the ratios are not equal.

Answer:

no
