Solve 100/x*y=50

$$\frac { 100 } { x } \times y = 50$$

Solve for x

$$x=2y$$

$$y\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$100y=50x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$50x=100y$$

Divide both sides by 50.

$$\frac{50x}{50}=\frac{100y}{50}$$

Dividing by 50 undoes the multiplication by 50.

$$x=\frac{100y}{50}$$

Divide 100y by 50.

$$x=2y$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 0.

$$x=2y\text{, }x\neq 0$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{x}{2}$$

$$x\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$100y=50x$$

Divide both sides by 100.

$$\frac{100y}{100}=\frac{50x}{100}$$

Dividing by 100 undoes the multiplication by 100.

$$y=\frac{50x}{100}$$

Divide 50x by 100.

$$y=\frac{x}{2}$$
