They are proportional if when you cross multiply they equal;
1. 50 over 40 equal 5 over 4
50%2F40=5%2F4
50*4=200
40*5=200
2. 12 to 11, 36 to 33
12%2F11=36%2F33
12*33=396
36*11=396
3. 20:40, 1:2
20%2F40=1%2F2
20*2=40
1*40=40
4. 33 over 36 equals 44 over 48
33%2F36=44%2F48
33*48=1584
44*36=1584
They are all proportions
