Question

Simply the expression y/3=5. check your solution.

Answer 1

Step 1

The expression is y/3 =5.

Mulyiplivsyion property of equality:

If x/a =b amd a≠0, than x/a . or or x = ab

y/x.3 = 5.3                      (Multiply each side by 3)

y =15                              ( Multiply: 5.3 =15 )

Step 2

check:

Check the solution by substituting : y = 15 in the original equation.

15/3 .3 = 15

15 = 15                          (Simplify )

solution

The value of   y is 15.

Answer 2

Given expression is y/3 = 5

y/3 = 5

y = 15

Checking;-

y = 15

15/3=5

Hence y = 15
