Answer:
k = 0.167
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a direct proportion. That is as the number of chairs increases, so does the number of minutes needed.
y=number of chairs
x = time in minutes.
y = k x
4 = k * 24 Divide by 24
4/24 = k
You could leave it that way.
or you could do the division
k = 1/6 = 0.167
y = 0.167 x
