Question

Solve the equation 3/y = 4/5

Answer 1

Answer:

15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3/y=4/5

3=4/5(y)

3(5)=4y

15=4y

15/4=y

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Cross Multiply

$\frac{3}{y} = \frac{4}{5}$

$5(3) = 4(y)$

$15 = 4y$

Step 2:  Divide both sides by 4

$15 / 4 = 4y / 4$

$3.75 = y$

Answer:  $y = 3.75$
