Answer:
y = 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the value of y. To do so, we need to isolate the variable (y).
The operation here is multiplication. 3/4 times y. We need to get rid of that 3/4 by doing the opposite of multiplication which is division.
So, 24 divided by 0.75 (0.75 is just the decimal form of 3/4) is 32.
3/4 times y DIVIDED by 3/4 cancels out the number and just leaves us with y.
So, we are left with y = 32.
You can check your answer by plugging 32 into the equation.
32 x 0.75 = 24.
