Answer:

NOT PROPORTIONAL

Step-by-step explanation:

The given two fractions are: [tex]$ \frac{5}{8} $[/tex] and [tex]$ \frac{8}{10} $[/tex].

Proportional fractions are those which have the same value when to reduced to the simplest form.

Consider two fractions [tex]$ \frac{p}{q} $[/tex] and [tex]$ \frac{x}{y} $[/tex].

We say they are proportional if [tex]$ p : q = x : y $[/tex].

Or, if [tex]$ py = qx $[/tex] then we can say the fractions are proportional.

Here the fractions are:  [tex]$ \frac{5}{8} $[/tex] and [tex]$ \frac{8}{10} $[/tex].

LHS: 5 X 10 = 50.

RHS: 8 X 8 = 64.

Clearly they are not equal. So, we can say these two fractions are not proportional.
