Question

How would you get the variable alone in the 4y = 3

A: Divide both sides of the equation by 4

B: Add 4 to both sides of the equation

C: Multiply both sides with equation by 4

D: Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

You would have to divide because in the original equation it's multiplication so the inverse operation is division. Due to this, you have to divide both sides of the equation by 4. Hope this helped :-)

Answer 2

A: Divide both sides of the equation by 4.

Explanation:

If you take the equation:

`4y = 3`

And then divide by 4 on both sides (what you do one side you must do to the other):

`(4y)/(4) =(3)/(4)`

y is isolated.

`y = (3)/(4)`
