Please help me with this question, as soon as possible.

Answer 1

B y is 3/4 of (x+y)

Explanation:

a : is the same thing as a division sign or a fraction bar

so 1 : 3 = 1/3

this ratio says that for every 1 of x, there are 3 y's.

so 1x = 3y or y = 1/3x

x = 1; y = 3

x + y = 4

y / (x+y)

3 / 4

y is 3/4 of (x+y)
