    Laws of Proportion

    Uploaded by

    The document outlines 6 laws of proportion: 1) The means-extremes product law states that if a/b = c/d, then ad=bc. 2) The switch means-switch extremes law states that if a/b = c/d, then a/c = b/d. 3) The invert-both-sides law states that if a/b = c/d, then b/a = d/c. 4) The denominator-addition law states that if a/b = c/d, then a/(b+d) = c/d. 5) The denominator-subtraction law states that if a/b = c/d
