Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are : 32 , 48 , 140 , 120

First number is 32

Second number is 48

Third number is 140

Fourth number is 120

First number/second number :

[tex]\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{32}{48}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\ ....(1)[/tex]

Third number/Fouth number :

[tex]\dfrac{N_3}{N_4}=\dfrac{140}{120}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{6}\ ....(2)[/tex]

From equation (1) and (2) we can see that the ratio is not same. Hence, they are not in proportion.
