Answer:

n = 108

Explanation:

given n is proportional to m² then the equation relating them is

n = km² ← k is the constant of proportion

to find k use the condition n = 27 when m = 3 , then

27 = k × 3² = 9k ( divide both sides by 9 )

3 = k

n = 3m² ← equation of proportion

when m = 6 , then

n = 3 × 6² = 3 × 36 = 108

Answer:

n=9M, when m is 6,n=18

Explanation:

If n is proportional to M

n=kM

27=3k

k=27/3

k=9

the formula on terms of n and M is

n= 9M

2) If m= 6,

n= 3M

n=3(6)

n=18
