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

2 answers

The constant of proportionality is the coefficient of x, which is 2 2/3. However, it is important to write this coefficient as an improper fraction.

Converting 2 2/3 to an improper fraction:
2 * 3 = 6
6 + 2 = 8

Therefore, the coefficient of x can be written as 8/3.
