Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2 5
----- = ------
34 Y
So you cross multiply to end up with this equation.
2Y = 5 x 34
which can be written as
2Y = 170
so now solve for Y by dividing both sides by 2
2Y 170
---- = -----
2 2
The 2 divided by 2 on the left side equals 1. 170 divided by 2 on the right side is 85. So Y = 85
