Question

Ants have 6 legs. Katie and Lukas write equations showing the proportional relationship between the number of ants, a, and the number of ant legs, l.
Katie writes a = 6 • 1 and Lukas writes a = 1/6 • l.

Whose equation do you agree with?

A. Katie
B. Lukas
C. Both
D. Neither

Explain your reasoning.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

I agree with Katie because number is legs is directly proportional to the number of ants.

1 ant has 6 legs.

So, 2 ants have 6 *2 = 12

3 ants have 6*3 = 18
