1 answer

To solve this equation using substitution, isolate one variable and rewrite the equation in terms of the other variable.

1) Start with the equation 12 = 36/y
2) Isolate y by multiplying both sides by y: 12y = 36
3) Divide both sides by 12: y = 3

Therefore, the solution to the equation is y=3.
