Step 2.3.1.2.1

Factor

$15$ out of

$120$ .

$y = \frac{15 \cdot 1}{15 \cdot 8}$

Step 2.3.1.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$y = \frac{15 \cdot 1}{15 \cdot 8}$

Step 2.3.1.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

Step 3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$y = \frac{1}{8}$

Decimal Form:

$y = 0.125$
