Question

Solve the equation. Start Fraction y minus 5 over 3 End Fraction= 1 A. –2 B. 8 C. 18 D. 6

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Start Fraction y minus 5 over 3 End Fraction= 1

This statement above is written Mathematically as:

y - 5/3 = 1

We solve the Equation below

Step 1

y - 5/3 = 1

We cross Multiply

y - 5 = 3 × 1

y - 5 = 3

Step 2

Add 5 to both sides

y - 5 = 3

y - 5 + 5 = 3 + 5

y = 8

Option b is the correct answer
