Explanation:

If two quantities A and B are proportional, then:

B = kA

where k is a constant.

We can check if these are proportional by seeing if the ratio between A and B is the same at each point:

B/A = k

92/35 = 2.629

80/23 = 3.478

The ratios aren't the same, the relationship is not proportional.
