Question

If x+3/3=y+2/2, then x/3= _______.

Answer 1

Answer:

y/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply 6 on both sides. 2x+6 = 3y+6. Subtract both sides by 6.

2x = 3y. 2x is 6*x/3. So ^*x/3 = 3y. Divide both sides by 6 and x/3 = 3y/6.

3y/6 = y/2.

Answer 2

ANSWER

$\frac{x}{3} = \frac{y}{2}$

EXPLANATION

Given:

$\frac{x + 3}{3} = \frac{y + 2}{2}$

Split the numerator on both sides of the equation to get:

$\frac{x }{3} + \frac{3}{3} = \frac{y}{2} + \frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{x }{3} + 1 = \frac{y}{2} + 1$

Solve for $\frac{x}{3}$

$\frac{x }{3} = \frac{y }{2} + 1 - 1$

Simplify:

$\frac{x }{3} = \frac{y}{2}$
