Answer 2

Given:

• A sum of Rs x is divided equally among 4 children.
• Each child gets Rs y.

To Find:

• We have to express y in terms of x .

Concept Used:

• We will first convert these given statements into mathematical equations.
• Then we will establish relationship between x and y .

Answer:

It is given that a sum of Rs x is divided equally among 4 children.

So ,each child would get $\sf{\dfrac{x}{4}}$.

And this equals to y

Sum of money by 4 children = Initial money.

$\sf{\implies y+y+y +y = x}$

$\sf{\implies 4y = x}$

${\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{\leadsto y=\dfrac{x}{4}}}}}}$

Hence y in terms of x will be x/4.
