Number of chocolates = x

Number of tokens = y

Proportional equation:

y = kx

Where:

k: constant of proportionality

By looking at the graph, we can see that there is a coordinate point (x,y), which is (5,10)

Replace x, y by the coordinate point from the graph and solve for k:

10= 5k

10/5= k

2= k

Constant of propotionality : 2
