Proportion of one thing to another?
Ratio
What are some modern examples of math that seem to use the same ideas as the ancient greek math?
Pythagorean Theorem would be the first thing to come to mind. Well, this is kind of more related to art/architecture, but there is the golden rectangle and the golden ratio. The golden ratio is represented by the Greek letter phi, which appears as a circle with a slash going through it. It is a value representing the ratio of the lesser to the greater when the ratio of the lesser to the greater is the same as the ratio of the greater to the whole. In Ancient Greek, architects used this technique to create beautiful buildings and works of art, where the ratio of the length to the width of the rectangle in one of the structures (or vice versa) is equal to the golden ratio.
What do a proportion look like?
it can be in lots of ways. I'll show U 2 ways First it looks like X:Y=A:B (A,B,X,Y are real numbers) that means the ratio of X to Y is eaqual to the ratio A to B Second X/Y=A/B (means same thing)
Can proportion be nagative value?
No. A proportion is the relationship of one part of something to the whole thing. If X is a fifth of Y, this must be a positive value.

Is the Pythagoras theorem the same thing as the golden ratio?
No, they are not the same, but relate to each other. The medial right triangle of this "golden" pyramid, demonstrated the Pythagorean theorem through the relationship of the two. Ancient Greek mathematicians first studied the golden ratio because of its frequent appearance in geometry. The division of a line into "extreme and mean ratio" (the golden section) is important in the geometry of regular pentagrams and pentagons. The Greeks usually attributed discovery of this concept to Pythagoras.

Where do you use these ratios in your daily life?
Unless the field you decide to study is engineering or further maths, not much. However, the Golden Ratio, or PHI is supposed to be the ratio of everything's proportions in the universe. PHI is 1.16803399. It was discovered by an ancient Greek scientist, and is the basic proportion on EVERY living thing. For example, if you measure your height, and the height from the floor to your bellybuton and divide your original height by that, the answer should be approximately PHI (1.168 ...)
How is a rate different than a ratio?
the rate of something is the amount or speed of it, whereas the ratio is the proportion of one thing to another, like for example if there was 15 sweets in a bag; 10 red and 5 blue, so the ratio of red sweets to blue would be 2 to 1. Kthanks.
