Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we must compare 2 to 4 and 11 to 11/2

1. The first ratio given is 2 to 4


r_1=(2)/(4)=(1)/(2)

So, the first ratio is 1/2

2. The second ratio given is 11 to 11/2


\begin{gathered} r_2=(11)/((11)/(2))=(2\cdot11)/(11) \\ r_2=2 \end{gathered}

Finally, since r1 ≠ r2 they are not proportional

ANSWER:

they are not proportional
