1. Subtract 4 from both sides
v - 4 = 2t
2. Divide both sides by 2
v - 4/2 = t
3. Switch sides
t = v - 4/2
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have 'x' students who like math and 'y' students that like science, we can formulate that:
Half of x likes math and science, and also one third of y likes math and science, so:
(1/2) * x = (1/3) * y
x / y = (1/3) / (1/2)
x / y = (1/3) * 2 = 2/3
So the ratio of the number of students who like math to the number of students who like science is 2/3
You divide everything by 2.
Your answer is
Y=1/2 + 3/2
