The answers are x=4 and y=323/2

1) 40/2x-3=8

Multiply both sides by 2x-3 to get rid of fraction

40= 8(2x-3)

Distribute 8

40= 16x-24

Add 24 to both sides

64=16x

Divide by 16

4=x


2) 2y-3/40=8

Multiply both sides by 40 to red rod of fraction

2y-3=320

Add 3 to both sides

2y= 323

Divide by 2

Y=323/2

Now just describe the differences in solving them


FYI / means fraction, right after the slash is bottom of fraction

We can solve this by multiplying those two numbers but we place them in improper fraction.

2 1/2 x 2 1/4
becomes
5/2 x 9/4

for fraction multiplication, just multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator

5/2 x 9/4 = 45/8

we can simplify this into mixed fraction while numbers in whole numbers and remainder in numerator

5 5/8 is the answer
