If there are two numbers say a and b. The proportion of this number can be represented as a:b.
A proportion is an equation containing to ratios (usually written as fractions) which are equal to each other. This would require four numbers, not six. Of the numbers listed, you can make a proportion out of 4:8 = 3:6.
Take any two of them and divide. 14/27 is a proportion
Take the amount shown by the percentage as the left number in the proportion. 100 minus that amount is the right number in the proportion. This can then be simplified by identifying any common factors in the two numbers. For instance 40% would be written down as 40:60. This could then be simplified to 2:3.
