How to find the Constant of Proportionality


The Constant of Proportionality is the relationship between two related variables. In order to explain how to find the Constant of Proportionality you must understand the relationship between the two variables. The variables must be directly related. In other words, they must have a relationship where one variable directly effects the other variable. For the variables to be a proportion, the ratio of the two variables must be constant. If there is a constant that you can can multiply to one variable to get the other variable, then the two variables are a proportion. The constant that you use to multiply by the variable is called the Constant of Proportionality. Divide the two variables and that is how to find the Constant of Proportionality.
