240 x 257 = 61680    and 120 x 128.5 = 15420  

120 CALORIES =  257 ml

 240 ml        128.5 CALORIES

This is not a proportion because  240 x 257 does not equal 120 x 128.5  and notice that one numerator is measured in calories and the other in ml. This would be a proportion if you inverted one of the ratio fractions. Then both numerators would be in the same measurement and both denominators would be in the same measurement and cross multiplying would prove that the equality is a proportion. The following are proportions:

240 ml       =  257 ml

120 CALORIES    125.5 CALORIES

 

120 CALORIES =  128.5 CALORIES

 240 ml         257 ml
