To find the proportional relationship if the constant is same for all taken pairs of points then the relationship is proportional

A proportional relationship is a relationship between two quantities where their ratio is constant.

If the constant is same for all taken pairs of points then the relationship is proportional

In other words, as one quantity increases, the other quantity also increases at a consistent rate.

To find the proportional relationship between two quantities, you can set up a proportion by equating the ratios of the quantities.

For example, if x and y are directly proportional, you can write the proportion as x/y = k, where k is the constant of proportionality.
