Answer:

l=6a ,

Where,

a = number of ants,

l = number of legs.

Explanation:

Given,

The number of legs an ant has = 6,

The number of legs a ants have ( say l ) = a × 6

$\implies l = 6a$

∵ by the equation,

We get,

I ∝ a

i.e. the required proportional relation is,

l=6a

Note : a relation is called proportional if output value is directly proportional to input value.
