If decrease in one quantity produces decrease in the other quantity, this is called _____?

If decrease in one quantity produces decrease in the other quantity, this is called _____?

Explanation

Direct Proportion:

When a decrease in one quantity causes a proportional decrease in another, they are directly related.

Example: If you reduce the number of workers, the amount of work done decreases proportionally.


Rate: Measures change over time (e.g., speed).

Ratio: Compares quantities without implying proportionality.

Inverse Proportion: Increase in one causes decrease in the other (e.g., speed vs. time).
