Answer:

  z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportionality can be written as ...

  x = ky/z

Then ...

  z = ky/x

If x is constant, z is directly proportional to y. When y is reduced by a factor of 2 from 6 to 3, then z will be reduced by a factor of 2 from 4 to 2.

  z = 2 . . . . when y=3 and x=3
