An equation that sets two fractions equal to each other is called a proportion. In a proportion, the cross products of the fractions are equal. For example, if you have the proportion ( \frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} ), then ( ad = bc ). Proportions are commonly used in solving problems involving ratios and rates.
