answer:

To determine the constant of proportionality, we need to find the ratio between the number of tickets and the number of games.

Let's take the first set of data: 4 games require 24 tickets. To find the ratio, we divide the number of tickets by the number of games:

24 tickets / 4 games = 6 tickets per game

Now let's check the ratio for the second set of data: 7 games require 42 tickets.

42 tickets / 7 games = 6 tickets per game

Finally, let's check the ratio for the third set of data: 10 games require 60 tickets.

60 tickets / 10 games = 6 tickets per game

Since the ratio between the number of tickets and the number of games is consistent at 6 tickets per game, the constant of proportionality is 6.

Therefore, the correct answer is 6.

woah, i did it (i think-)
