beejal is solving the equation y/7-3=39 as a first step he starts by adding __ to both sides of the equation, and the continues by multiplying by __ on each side

1 answer

To simplify the equation, Beejal needs to add 3 to both sides of the equation:

y/7 - 3 + 3 = 39 + 3

This simplifies to:

y/7 = 42

Next, Beejal should multiply both sides of the equation by 7 to isolate y:

7 * (y/7) = 7 * 42

This simplifies to:

y = 294
