Convert to Improper Fractions: First, we need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions to make the calculation easier.121 is the same as 23 because 121=1+21=22+21=23.243 is the same as 411 because 243=2+43=48+43=411.Now we can rewrite the equation as (23)y=411.
Isolate and Solve for y: Next, we need to isolate y by dividing both sides of the equation by 23. To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal.The reciprocal of 23 is 32.So we multiply both sides of the equation by 32 to find y.y=(411)∗(32)
Perform Multiplication: Now we perform the multiplication of the two fractions.y=4×311×2y=1222
Simplify Fraction: We can simplify the fraction 1222 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. y=(12÷222÷2)y=611
Convert to Mixed Number: Finally, we can convert the improper fraction back to a mixed number if necessary.611 is the same as 165 because 611=66+65=1+65.So, y=165.
