GCSE Maths - What Does Inversely Proportional Mean? #91

The video explains the concept of inverse proportionality using the example of farmers picking apples. It describes how increasing the number of farmers decreases the time taken proportionally. The video also covers how to represent this relationship graphically with a downward sloping curve and algebraically with equations. Practical examples are provided to illustrate the calculations involved. The video concludes by summarizing the key points about inverse proportionality and its representations.

What happens to the time taken if the number of farmers doubles?

Describe how the equation t = k/f can be used to calculate time taken for different numbers of farmers.
