Answer:

Egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length

Explanation:

Weight of Sandwiches by Length of Roll

6-inch Roll 12-Inch Roll

Cheese sandwich
(1)/(4)
(3)/(4)

Chicken salad sandwich
(3)/(4)
1(3)/(4)

Egg salad sandwich
(2)/(3)
1(1)/(3)

For cheese sandwich proportion


(6)/((1)/(4))=(12)/((3)/(4))\\24 \\eq 16

So, Cheese sandwich weight is not proportional to its length

For Chicken salad sandwich proportion


(6)/((3)/(4))=(12)/((7)/(4))\\8 \\eq (48)/(7)

So, chicken salad sandwich is not proportional to its length

For Egg salad sandwich proportion


(6)/((2)/(3))=(12)/((4)/(3))\\9=9

So, egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length
