Answer:

The constant of proportionality for the ratio of eggs to female chickens is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are said to be directly proportional, when they increase and decrease at the same rate. And it is denoted by = k

Now given sentence is :

Every female chicken lays 4 eggs.  The ratio is eggs to female chicken.

Lets take x as independent variable that is the female  chicken.

Lets take y as dependent variable that is eggs.

The constant of proportionality can be found as:

[tex]y=kx[/tex]

[tex]4=k(1)[/tex]

So, k = 4
