Direct Proportion
Two quantities x and y are said to be in direct proportion if whenever the value of x increases (or decreases), then the value of y increases or decreases in such a way that the ratio x:y i.e. x/y remains constant.
When x and y are in direct proportion, then y1x1=y2x2=y3x3=y4x4, etc. and so on.

Indirect Proportion
Two quantities x and y are said to be in indirect proportion if whenever the value of x increases or decreases then the value of y decreases or increases in such a way that xy remains constant.
When x and y are in inverse proportion, then x1×y1=x2×y2=x3×y3=x4×y4, etc. and so on.
