Question

Solve in simple terms
3y= 8-12y/4

Answer 1

To solve this equation, first multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the denominator:

3y*4 = 8*4 - 12y
12y = 32 - 12y

Next, add 12y to both sides to get all the y terms on one side:

12y + 12y = 32
24y = 32

Finally, divide both sides by 24 to solve for y:

y = 32/24
y = 4/3
