Question

If x + 3/3 = y + 2/2, then x/3 = ______thank you ! :)

Answer 1

Given

$\frac{x+3}{3}=\frac{y+2}{2}$

To find the value of x/3.

Explanation:

It is given that,

$\frac{x+3}{3}=\frac{y+2}{2}$

That implies,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x+3}{3}=\frac{y+2}{2} \\ \frac{x}{3}+\frac{3}{3}=\frac{y}{2}+\frac{2}{2} \\ \frac{x}{3}+1=\frac{y}{2}+1 \\ \frac{x}{3}=\frac{y}{2}+1-1 \\ \frac{x}{3}=\frac{y}{2} \end{gathered}$

Hence, x/3 = y/2.
