What are the Means and Extremes of Proportions? A proportion is just an equation where two ratios are equal, and each piece of the proportion has a special name.
Proportional vs. proportionate. Something that is proportional (1) forms a whole with other quantities, or (2) is considered quantitatively with respect to something else. Proportionate means in due proportion. The distinction is subtle, but proportionate describes something that is made that way by an active agent, and it often describes quantities that are difficult to measure. Proportional doesnât necessarily involve an active agent, and it is the preferred term where actual measurements are concerned.
