Answered by GPT 3.5
A constant of proportionality is a value that relates two quantities in a proportional relationship. In a proportional relationship, when one quantity increases or decreases, the other quantity changes in a consistent and predictable way. The constant of proportionality represents the ratio between the two quantities and remains the same throughout the relationship. It is usually denoted by the letter "k" and can be found by dividing the two quantities being compared.

To find the constant of proportionality, we need to divide each pair of quantities.

For the first pair, 20/3, the result is approximately 6.67.
For the second pair, 40/6, the result is also approximately 6.67.
For the third pair, 60/9, the result is once again approximately 6.67.

Therefore, the constant of proportionality in all three cases is approximately 6.67.

To find the constant of proportionality to the nearest tenth, we need to round the results of the divisions to the nearest tenth decimal place.

For the first pair, 20/3 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
For the second pair, 40/6 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
For the third pair, 60/9 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).

Therefore, the constant of proportionality, to the nearest tenth, in all three cases is 6.7.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's recalculate:

For the first pair, 20/3 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
For the second pair, 40/6 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
For the third pair, 60/9 ≈ 6.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth).

Therefore, the constant of proportionality, to the nearest tenth, in all three cases is indeed 6.7. The previous response was correct.

In decimal notation, a tenth is a unit of measurement representing 1/10 or 0.1. It is the first digit after the decimal point. Rounding to the nearest tenth means determining the value to one decimal place. For example, rounding 6.67 to the nearest tenth would give 6.7.
