Question

Find the fourth proportional to 8.6, 10.75, and 6.

This question was previously asked in
RRB Group D 2025 Question Paper (9-Aug-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

7.5

If the fourth proportional to a, b, c is d, then \(a : b = c : d\), i.e., \(a \times d = b \times c\).

Here, a = 8.6, b = 10.75, c = 6, so \(d = \dfrac{b \times c}{a} = \dfrac{10.75 \times 6}{8.6}\).

\(d = \dfrac{64.5}{8.6} = 7.5\).

Hence, the fourth proportional is 7.5.
