The constant proportionality is 2/3 because it will still be going on
for example- 2/3+2/3= 2/3*2

The number 2/3 goes

Answer:


\text{The proportionality constant is }(2)/(3)

Explanation:

we have to find the constant proportionality for


y=(2)/(3)x

Given two variables x and y, y is directly proportional to x if there is a non-zero constant k such that

y ∝ x

⇒ y=kx → (1)

Here, k is known as constant proportionality.

Now,
y=(2)/(3)x → (2)

Comparing (1) and (2), we get


k=(2)/(3)


\text{The proportionality constant is }(2)/(3)
