The equation you provided is \( y = 2 \frac{2}{3} x \), which can also be written as \( y = \frac{8}{3} x \).
In a direct variation equation of the form \( y = kx \), \( k \) represents the constant of proportionality.
In this case, \( k = \frac{8}{3} \).
So the constant of proportionality is \( 2 \frac{2}{3} \) (which is equal to \( \frac{8}{3} \)).
