(If you are)- Solving The Equation

1. Multiply both sides by eight over three

8/3•1/2 = 8/3•3/8 which gives you 4/3.


2. Swap the sides of the equation

4/3=y turns into y= 4/3 and that’s your answer. (y=4/3).

(Or if you’re working on)- Rewrite In Standard Form

Swap 1/2 and 3/8y , so it should be 3/8y=1/2.

Then multiply both sides by 8/3, and that should give you y=4/3.

Then multiply both sides of the equation by 3, and that should give you 3y = 4. And 3y=4 would be your answer.


Hope these helped! :)
