Question

6y/8+12=84 What is y How did you get that answer. Pls go step by step

Answer 1

Answer:

6y/8+12-12=84-12

6y/8=72

8/6*6y/8=72*8/6

y=96

Step-by-step explanation:

first u get rid of the 12 by subtracting it from both side until u get 6y/8 =72. Then to isolate y u have to multiply the reciprocal of 6/8(8/6) by 6y/8, and u do the same thing to the other side. Then when they cancel out each other y would be left to equal 96.

Answer 2

6y/8+ 12= 84

First: -12 by Boths sides.

6y/8=84-12

6y/8= 72

Second: Multiply 8 by boths sides to isolate the 6y.

8(6y/8)= 72(8)

6y. = 576

Third: divide 6 on boths sides

6y/6= 576/6

Answer: y= 96
