Question

Help with a 7th grade problem. How do I solve for x
4x = y

Answer 1

Y/4

Explanation:

Well, you need to isolate x so you can figure out what it is. So, divide 4x by 4 to get rid of the 4. What you do to one side, you must do to the other. So, divide y by 4, and since we do not have the value for y, the answer is quantity y divided by 4.
