Solve {l}{28x=3y}{y=2}

$$\left\{ \begin{array} { l } { 28 x = 3 y } \\ { y = 2 } \end{array} \right.$$

Solve for x, y

$$x=\frac{3}{14}\approx 0.214285714$$

$$y=2$$

Solution Steps

Consider the first equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.

$$28x=3\times 2$$

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

$$28x=6$$

Divide both sides by 28.

$$x=\frac{6}{28}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{6}{28} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=\frac{3}{14}$$

The system is now solved.

$$x=\frac{3}{14} y=2$$
