Let us try looking at one word problem.

Maita earns 450 pesos in selling

sampaguita garlands on 4 Sundays.
How many Sundays will it take her to
earn 1,350 pesos?
Is this a problem involving direct
proportion? Why do you say so?

Yes it is, because the more Sundays

Maita sells sampaguita, the more
earnings she will have.
Maita earns 450 pesos in
selling sampaguita
garlands on 4 Sundays.
How many Sundays will
it take her to earn
1,350 pesos?
No. of Earnings
Sundays
To solve this problem,
after knowing what is 4 450
asked, it’s better to list
the given facts or
numbers using a table. n 1,350

Let n represent the number

asked for in the problem
Maita earns 450 pesos in
selling sampaguita
garlands on 4 Sundays.
How many Sundays will
it take her to earn
1,350 pesos?
No. of Earnings
Sundays
Form two ratios given 4 450
the numbers in the
table. Equate the first n 1,350
ratio to the second
ratio.

Solve for the value of n

Therefore, Maita should sell
