Answer:

Explanations:

The number of cups of bananas is represented by x

The number of cups of strawberries is represented by y

Note that:


\begin{gathered} 1(2)/(25)\text{ = }(27)/(25) \\ 5(2)/(5)=\text{ }(27)/(5) \\ 2(18)/(25)=\text{ }(68)/(25) \\ 13(3)/(5)=\text{ }(68)/(5) \end{gathered}

27/5 cups of strawberry is used for 27/25 cups of banana

1 cup of strawberry is used for x cups of banana

x = 27/25 ÷ 27/5

x = 27/25 x 5/27

x = 1/5

1/5 cups of banana is used for 1 cup of strawberry

Comparing the values of x with values of y in the table and writing the relationship in the form y = kx:

y = 5x

where k = 5

The constant of proportionality = 5
