Updated Sept 2026
This Grade 7 mathematics worksheet gives students 15 multiple-choice questions on proportional relationships and graphs. Students calculate and simplify the constant of proportionality, identify what k means in y = kx, use y/x to find k, and connect constants to equations such as y = 7x and y = 1/2x. They also decide whether graphs are proportional by checking whether a straight line passes through the origin.
The worksheet extends these skills to interpreting a rate comparison and writing an equation from a weight-and-price relationship, including a decimal constant of proportionality. It is suitable for independent practice, review, or a formative check after instruction on proportional relationships. This free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key, helping teachers quickly verify students’ understanding of equations, graphs, and proportional rates.

FAQs
What does this worksheet cover about proportional relationships and graphs?
This Grade 7 worksheet uses 15 multiple-choice questions to assess how students identify proportional relationships in equations and graphs. Students calculate and simplify k, use y/x to find the constant of proportionality, recognize that a proportional graph is a straight line through the origin, and write an equation for a weight-and-price relationship.
How can I use this worksheet to teach constants of proportionality and proportional graphs?
Introduce the worksheet by modeling how to calculate k as y/x and connect that value to the equation y = kx. Then have students explain why equations with an added constant, such as y = x + 3, are not proportional and why a proportional graph must pass through the origin. Use the multiple-choice graph and equation items for turn-and-talk reasoning before assigning the full set independently.
What mistakes should I watch for on this proportional relationships worksheet?
Watch for students failing to simplify ratios when calculating k, reversing y/x as x/y, or choosing a coefficient without checking the relationship. Students may also select any straight-line graph as proportional without checking whether it passes through the origin, or mistake equations with an added or subtracted constant for equations in the form y = kx. In the final weight-and-price item, check that students match the decimal constant with the correct equation.
How do I assign and grade this proportional relationships worksheet?
You can assign this 15-question worksheet as a printable PDF or as a digital quiz on Wayground. It includes a complete answer key for checking students’ selections, calculations, graph interpretations, and equation choices. For printable submissions, scan student work with the Wayground for Teachers app to support grading.
How can I differentiate this worksheet on proportional relationships?
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing and font size so the 15 multiple-choice items, equations, and graph questions are easier to read. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when those options better support students working with the proportional-relationship vocabulary and notation.
