The correct answer is

75

The correct answer is 75.

From \frac{a}{b} = \frac{b}{c}, we get b^2 = ac, so b = \sqrt{ac}. The mean proportional is the geometric mean of a and c. Continued Proportion: When a, b, c, d, ... are in continued proportion, it means a:b :: b:c :: c:d :: .... Understanding these different types of proportion helps in solving various problems involving ratios and relationships between quantities.
