Answer: M = ⁹/₅S

Explanation:

M ∞ S -------------------------------- 1

M = KS ------------------------------ 2

K is a constant and need to be calculated

substitute for M and S in 2 to find K

900 = K500

K = ⁹⁰⁰/₅₀₀

= ⁹/₅

Therefore , the equation that connect / relates M to S will be

M = KS

M = ⁹/₅S
