proportionally

proportionally
Adverb

This term is primarily used in technical, mathematical, or formal administrative contexts to describe a relationship where one value changes in direct correlation with another. It conveys a sense of fairness or precision, often implying that a specific ratio is being strictly maintained to avoid imbalance.

In a socio-economic context, it is frequently used to discuss the distribution of resources or burdens, such as taxes or funding, to indicate that the allocation is based on a percentage of a total rather than a flat rate. It differs from "equally," which suggests everyone receives the same amount regardless of their circumstances.
