What is k?

In a proportional relationship, the ratio y/x stays constant for every valid pair.

How to Use It

  1. Enter x,y pairs one per line.
  2. Read the average ratio and proportionality check.
  3. Use the per-row table to verify the constant.

What if x is zero?

The calculator rejects that pair because y/x would be undefined.

Do the ratios need to match exactly?

For a proportional relationship, yes. This calculator uses a small tolerance for floating-point noise.

Can I use decimals?

Yes. Decimal and scientific-notation inputs are accepted.

What if a row is malformed?

Malformed rows are rejected instead of being silently ignored.

Formula

k = y/x and y = kx
