It is directly proportional

Explanation:

Photoelectric current is produced for every photon which is absorbed on the surface of the metal given that its energy is greater than the work function of the metal.

Energy is #(nhc)/Lambda# as you can see its proportional to #n#
So more the number of photons more will be the photoelectric current
