Question

number of students and money collected are in __________________ proportion​

Answer 1

Number of students and money collected are in direct proportion.

Complete question:

Students of a certain school went for a picnic to a farm by bus. Here are some of their experiences. Say whether the quantities in each are in direct or in inverse proportion. Each student paid Rs. 60 for the expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Since each student paid Rs. 60 for the expenses, then the money collected will also increase if the number of students also increase.

• This is the condition for direct proportionality.

• That is, number of students ∝ money collected.

Note:

If there were any condition for a problem, where a quantity increase when another decreases, then we can say that they are in inverse proportion.
