Direct Variation Calculator
Result
Direct Variation Calculator The Direct Variation Calculator finds the constant of variation k from a known pair (x, y) using y = kx, then predicts y for a new x. Enter a known x and y and the new x. — free online calculator.
Formula
- Direct Variation Calculator calculates its result from Kx, X. It uses the formula y = kx, so k = y ÷ x. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
- The main inputs are Known x, Known y, New x. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Keep comparable quantities in compatible units whenever the formula combines or compares them.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Direct Variation
- Known x: 4
- Known y: 12
- New x: 7
Using Kx = 2, X = 3, the calculated result is 0.6666666667.
