Answer:
B = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that B is directly proportional to A then the equation relating them is
B = kA ← k is the constant of proportionality
To find k use the condition B = 3 when A = 18 , then
3 = 18k ( divide both sides by 18 )
k = [tex]\frac{3}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
B = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] A ← equation of proportion
When A = 24, then
B = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] × 24 = 4
