Question

solution to 5y\9-y\9 is equal to 8\9?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 5y/9 - y/9 to 4y/9.

$\frac{4y}{9} = \frac{8}{9}$

2) Multiply both sides by 9.

$4y = \frac{8}{9} \times 9$

3) Cancle 9.

$4y = 8$

4) Divide both sides by 4.

$y = \frac{8}{4}$

4) Simplify 8/4 to 2.

$y = 2$

Hence, the answer is y = 2.
