Choose a smart first step for finding k

Problem

A table has \(x~=~3,7,11\) and \(y~=~12,28,44\). Consider these methods for finding \(k\): A, divide \(y/x\); B, divide \(x/y\); C, subtract \(x\) from \(y\); D, divide \(y/x\) but reverse its meaning. Choose the method that works, then calculate \(k\) with generic units.
