Answer: The constant of proportionality is 116.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the weight of 3 eggs is 350 g.

The constant of proportionality is a constant ratio, which shows that two variables are is in proportion.


y=kx

Here x and y are two variables and k is the constant ratio.

We have to find the constant of proportionality in grams per egg.

We have one variable "weight of eggs" and second variable "number of eggs".

3 eggs = 350 g

1 egg =
(350)/(3) g

1 egg = 116.67 g

Since the weight of egg increase 116.67 g per egg, therefore The constant of proportionality is 116.67.
