Question

Solve for x. 6/20x = 4/8?

Reduce the fraction, then change to a mixed number. 64/14?



Solve for x. x/5 = 20?


Solve for y. 8y – 6 = 9y – 12?

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

7+1

Answer 2

x = 100 , y = 6

Explanation:

`(x)/(5)` = 20 ( multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction )

x = 5 × 20 = 100

----------------------------

8y - 6 = 9y - 12 ( subtract 9y from both sides )

- y - 6 = - 12 ( add 6 to both sides )

- y = - 6 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 6
