Chapter 2: Q3. (page 98)

Solve the equation. Check your solution.
$\frac{y}{2} = 13$

Short Answer

Expert verified

Solution of given equation is $y = 26$

Step by step solution

Step-1- Solve the equation for y

$\frac{y}{2} = 13$

Multiplying with $2$ on both sides We get

$\begin{matrix} \frac{y}{2} \times 2 = 13 \times 2 \\ y = 13 \times 2 \\ y = 26 \end{matrix}$

$y = 26$

Step-2-Verification of our solution

For checking our answer, substitute $y = 26$ in given equation $\frac{y}{2} = 13$ .

On substituting, we get

$\begin{matrix} \frac{y}{2} = 13 \\ \frac{26}{2} = 13 \\ 13 = 13 \end{matrix}$

Step-3- Conclusion

Here as both sides above expression are equal, our answer is true.
