Question

For the direct variation equation  y=2 2/3x , fractions what is the constant of proportionality

Answer 1

The constant of proportionality is the coefficient in front of the variable x in a direct variation equation. In the equation y = (2 2/3)x, the coefficient in front of x is 2 2/3 or 8/3.

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 8/3.
