Question

The equation 190.80 = 12y can be used to find the entry fee per contestant y, in dollars, for entering a contest. What is the value of y?

Answer 1

15.90

Answer 2

Since y is being multiplied by 12, and you want y alone, you need to divide 12y by 12 to get y.
In an equation, you must do the same to both sides, so divide both sides by 12.
