Let's first find the differential equation of the given family.

y=c1x.y = c_1 x.

Express the constant c1c_1 from the equation.

c1=yx.c_1 = \dfrac{y}{x}.

Put the constant into the derivative.

dydx=c1\begin{align*} \dfrac{dy}{dx} &= c_1 \end{align*}

dydx=yx\color{#4257b2} \boxed{ \dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{y}{x} }
