Question 328014
There is no constant of proportionately. But, illumination, I, is directly proportional to the cosine of the angle of incidence of the light rays and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source.

{{{I=k*(cos(x)/L^2)}}}

k is the constant of proportionately.

Let h=4.8, the height the light is above the table.

Then, {{{cos(x)=h/L}}}

{{{L=sqrt(h^2+r^2)}}}

So, {{{I=k*(h/L^3)=k*(h/((h^2+r^2)^(3/2)))}}}

Since the illumination is 25 at the center, then:

{{{25=k*(4.8/((4.8)^2+0^2)^(3/2)))}}}

{{{k=576}}}

Now, since the edge of the table is at r=7.2 and we now have k

{{{I=576*4.8/((4.8)^2+(7.2)^2)^(3/2)=4.27}}}

As I said, I am winging it here since there is no k given. So I am using what I know about light.
