    The required equation is

    Charges = $ (22 * No of Rooms cleaned)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Direct Relation:

    The relation ship in which if one quantity increase then it results in the increase of the other quantity too and if it decreases then other quantity will decrease too.

    it is represented by

    a∝b

    a = kb

    where k is constant of proportionality

    Now for the given question

    Charges is directly proportional to no of rooms cleaned

    It is

    Charges ∝ No of rooms cleaned

    It could be written as

    Charges = K * No of rooms cleaned

    Here k is given as $22 for each room

    so

    it becomes

    Charges = $ (22 * No of Rooms cleaned)

    which is the relationship in form of equation!
