Question

Write a division equation that has a solution of 8. Prove that your solution is correct by using tape diagrams.

Answer 1

The required equation is
`(y)/(4) =2` and the tape diagram is shown below.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Write a division equation that has a solution of 8.

The required division equation is shown below:

`(y)/(4) =2`

Solve the above equation a shown.

`(y)/(4)* 4=4* 2`

`y=8`

Now check this with the help of tape diagram as shown.

The required tape diagram is shown below:

By the tape diagram we concluded that the value of y is 8.
