Z is inversely proportional to X is the same as z is directly proportional to 1/X which can be written like this:- y=k/X ________ 0.5=k/6 0.5*6=k/6*6 k=3 ; ________ z = 3/14 Z = 0.2
Not always if you're saying it will always be something like 1/2 becomes 2/1 with a unit of one. It's just flipped, so 2/6 will be 6/2, 4/5 becomes 5/4, 22/16 becomes 16/22 etc. That is all there is to it. Make sure you simplify your answers.
