Answer:
(2)/(5)

Explanation:

The constant of proportionality 'k' between two variables ( one independent and one dependent ) is given by :-

$k=\frac{\text{Value of dependent variable}}{\text{Value of independent variable}}$

In the given table, independent variable = Days

Dependent variable = Total Miles

From first row, Days = 3

Total Miles =
1(1)/(5)=(6)/(5)

Then, the constant of proportionality in the table

k=((6)/(5))/(3)=(6)/(5*3)=(2)/(5)

Hence, the constant of proportionality in the table is
(2)/(5) .
