Question

if y/2+y/3=5 then y=​

Answer 1

Given: The equation is$\frac{y}{2} +\frac{y}{3} =5$

We have to find the value of$y$.

For this, we are cross multiplying the given equation and then simplifying the equation.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

$\frac{y}{2} +\frac{y}{3} =5$

$=>\frac{(3\times y)+(y\times2)}{2\times3} =5\\\\=>\frac{3y+2y}{6} =5\\\\=>\frac{5y}{6}=5\\\\=>5y=5\times6\\=>5y=30$

Solving the above equation further we get,

$=>y=\frac{30}{5} \\\\=>y=6$

Hence, the value of $y$will be$6$.

Answer 2

As per the data given in the question,

We have to determine the value of "y" in the expression given in the question.

From the data,

It is given that:

The equation is $\frac{y}{2} +\frac{y}{3} =5$

So, for finding the value of 'y"  we will cross multiplying the given equation and then simplifying the equation.

So, we will obtain like that,

$\frac{y}{2} +\frac{y}{3} =5=>\frac{(3\times y)+(y\times2)}{2\times3} =5\\=>\frac{3y+2y}{6} =5\\=>\frac{5y}{6}=5\\=>5y=5\times6\\=>5y=30$

Solving the above equation further we get,

$=>y=\frac{30}{5} \\=>y=6$

Hence, the value of y will be 6 in the given expression.
