Given:

The mean proportion of 169 and 144

Concept used:

If A : B :: C : D then (B × C) = (A × D)

Calculation:

Let the mean proportion be Q.

The proportion becomes = 169 : Q :: Q : 144

​According to the concept,

(144 × 169) = (Q × Q)

⇒ Q2 = (144 × 169)

⇒ Q = 12 × 13

⇒ Q = 156

∴ The mean proportion of 169 and 144 is 156.
