Question

For any number, y

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation and solve for x:

$y + \frac{1}{3} y = \frac{4}{3} y\\\frac{4}{3}y - x(\frac{4}{3}y) = y\\x = \frac{3}{12}$

Answer 2

Answer:

y/3

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the conditions :

y + y/3 - x = y

y + y/3 - y = x

(3y + y - 3y )/3 = x

y/3 = x
