The proportional relationship between the gallons of gasoline used by Nathan, g, and the total number of miles he drives, m, can be represented by the equation m = 40g. What is the constant of proportionality between the number of miles driven and the number of gallons used?

Respuesta :

The equation is m=40 g.

Hence, the constant of proportionality between the number of miles driven and the number of gallons used is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=40\text{ g} \\ \frac{m}{g}=40 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 40.
