If 8x=16y then (x)/(y) is ​

Question

If 8x=16y then

`(x)/(y)`
is
​

Answer 1

`(x)/(y) = 2`

Explanation:

`8x = 16y`

• Dividing both the sides by 8

`=> (8x)/(8) = (16y)/(8)`

`=> x = 2y`

• Divide both the sides by 'y'.

`=> (x)/(y) = (2y)/(y)`

`=> (x)/(y) = 2`

Answer 2

Answer is 2

If 8x = 16y

on rearranging question,

x/y = 16/8 = 2
