Question

5y = 135 help me
what does y equal?

Answer 1

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

5 y = 135

Divide both sides of 5 y = 135 by 5:

(5 y)/5 = 135/5

5/5 = 1:

y = 135/5

The gcd of 135 and 5 is 5, so 135/5 = (5×27)/(5×1) = 5/5×27 = 27:

Answer:  y = 27

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides of the equation by 5.

$\frac{5y}{5}$ = $\frac{135}{5}$

$y = 27$

To check if this is true, substitute 27 back into the original equation.

$5y=135$

$5(27)=135$

$135=135$
