    No, there is not a proportional relationship.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A proportional relationship is when 2 amounts have the same ratios.

    The easiest way to see this is to put them into decimal form.

    3/4 is equal to 0.75 (You can find this by dividing 3 and 4 in the calculator)

    1 1/4 is equal to 1.25

    Kara mixes every 0.75 with 1 egg.

    James mixes every 1.25 tablespoons with 2 eggs.

    Divide 1.25 by 2 to find out how many tablespoons that James mixes with 1 egg.

    1.25 tablespoons / 2 = 0.625

    2 eggs / 2 = 1 egg

    Therefore, James mixes 0.625 tablespoons of milk with 1 egg.

    They do not mix the same amount of tablespoons of milk for ever ONE egg, meaning that they are not proportional.
