They are proportional if a change in one of the quantities always and necessarily results in a proportional change in the other.
So if you think of a simple equation, x = 2y then the quantities are proportional. If you double y then x is necessarily also doubled. If you triple y then x is also tripled. If you halve y then x is halved and so forth.
However x = 2y + 1 is non proportional. This is because if, for example, you double y then x is increased but it is not exactly doubled and so the change is not in proportion. For example, in this equation, when y = 2 then x = 5. When y = 4 then x = 9. 9 is not the double of 5.

A proportion or fraction that compares two measurements of the same quantity?
this is Jeremy im improving this anser of " I don't know" its poiintless its where you wold cross multiply and if they eqall out they wold be porportional, if not its you gessed it not porportional. hope this helped you people. :)

What are ratios of equal quantities?

An equation states that two quantities are what?
An equation states that the two quantities on each side of the equal sign are equal.
The relationship between two quantities that increase or decrease together is called what?
The relationship between two quantities that increase or decrease together is called a positive correlation. This means that as one quantity increases, the other quantity also increases, and vice versa.
What makes two quantities proportional?
Any two non-zero quantities are always proportional. If the two quantities are X and Y, they are proportional to X/Y.
