Question

Can you help me I dont understand
6. Solve: 143 = 13y​

Answer 1

y=11

Explanation:

you have to divide both sides of the equation by the same term and then simplify

Answer 2

y=11

Explanation:

To isolate the variable, y, you need to divide by 13 on both sides. 13y/13 cancels out, so you are left with 143/13. 143 ÷ 13 is 11, so y = 11.

To Check your answer:

Substitute y for 11. Your equation will be 143 = 13 x 11. Does 13 x 11 = 143? Yes.
