Question:

P is directly proportional to Q and Q = 7 when P = 15. Find P when Q = 14.

Options:

10

20

30

22

Correct Answer:

30

Explanation:

P is directly proportional to Q

So, P = c . Q    ( c = constant )

15 = c . 7

c = \(\frac{15}{7}\)

Now,

When Q = 14

P = c . 14

= \(\frac{15}{7}\) × 14

= 30
