Find the mean proportional between 0.4 and 3.6.
- A1.4
- B1.2
- C0.8
- D1
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The mean proportional between two numbers a and b is given by the formula:
Mean Proportional=
a×b
Substituting the given values a=0.4 and b=3.6:
Mean Proportional=
0.4×3.6
Mean Proportional=
1.44
=1.2
Mean Proportional=
a×b
Substituting the given values a=0.4 and b=3.6:
Mean Proportional=
0.4×3.6
Mean Proportional=
1.44
=1.2
