Question

0.5y/4/9 = (y+3)/8 I need help plzzz

Answer 1

0.375

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 0.375

Explanation:

`(0.5y)/((4)/(9))=(y+3)/(8)`

`(0.5y)/(1)* (9)/(4)=(y+3)/(8)`

`(4.5y)/(4)=(y+3)/(8)`

By cross multiplication,

8(4.5y) = 4(y + 3)

36y = 4y + 12

36y - 4y = 12

32y = 12

y =
`(12)/(32)`

y =
`(3)/(8)`

y = 0.375

Therefore, y = 0.375 will be the answer.
