Question

2. Solve for y. y/8 = 8

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{y}{8} = 8$

To get rid of the 8 in the denominator, you need to do the opposite of the expression. So opposite of division is multiplication. My multiplying each side by 8, you can get rid of the 8 in the denominator. Because if you divide 8 by 8 it is 1.

$\frac{y}{8}*8 = 8 * 8$

y = 64
