Points to Remember

1) Direct Proportion:

Any two quantities are said to be directly proportional, if on the increase of one quantity, the other quantity increases and vice-versa.

    Cost ? Number of objects
    Number of objects increases (↑) Cost (↑)
  • Example: Work done is directly proportional to number of working men
    Work done ? Number of working men
    Number of men increase (↑) Work done (↑)

2) Indirect Proportion:

Any two quantities are said to be indirectly proportional, if on the increase of one quantity, the other quantity decreases and vice-versa.

  • Example: If speed of car is increases, then the time required to cover the distance decreases.
    Speed of car (↑) Time required decreases (↓)
  • Example: Time taken to finish work increases, if number of men decrease.
    Time (↑) Number of men (↓)
