Question

0.6(y+3)=4.8

Answer 1

Solve for y

Answer 2

Divide both sides by 0.6:\[y + 3 = {4.8 \over 0.6}\]Or,\[y + 3 = {48 \over 6}\]

Answer 3

In other words,\[y = {48 \over 6} - 3\]

Answer 4

4.8/.6 = 8

Answer 5

Do keep in mind that 48/6 can be simplified.

Answer 6

8-3 = ?

Answer 7

and there you go. :)

Answer 8

\[\frac{6}{10}(y+3)=\frac{48}{10}\]\[y=5 \]
