Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the 30% represents the proportion of this specific sample (survey taken by the magazine).
It is a statistic that can be used to estimate a parameter of the population. In this case, it may be used to estimate the true proportion of "people in New York who believe that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year".

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate. The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other.
If you mean average, then it's quite simple.
Usually when you want to find the average of something, you add them up all together and divide by how many there are.
For example, the numbers:
12, 69, 35, 67, and 2.
Steps:
1.) Add them. 12 + 69 + 35 + 67 + 2 = 185
2.) 185 divided by 5.
3.) Answer: 37
