To make two fractions equivalent, the product of the numerator and denominator of one fraction should be equal to the product of the numerator and denominator of the other fraction.
In this case, the equation is:
5/30 = 1/y
To find the value of y, you need to find the number that, when multiplied by 1 in the second fraction, gives you the same result as multiplying 5 by 30 in the first fraction.
5 × 30 = 150
Therefore, the number that can replace y to make the two fractions equivalent is 150.
