Interesting problem.
First - let's figure cost of each uniform at purchase.
3,000/40 = $75 each
When some uniforms were returned at $40 - there was a difference of $35 in what they paid and what they rec'd in return. ($75 - 35 = $40)
Y=24 is a solution for the equation.
y/12=2 is solved by multiplying both sides by 12 to get y by itself. so you'd end up multiplying 2 • 12 which equals 24.
can you show me a picture then maybe i can help you
