8 y = 4

$8 y = 4$

Step 1

Divide each term in

8 y = 4

$8 y = 4$ by

8

$8$ .

\frac{8 y}{8} = \frac{4}{8}

$\frac{8 y}{8} = \frac{4}{8}$

Step 2.1.1

Cancel the common factor.

\frac{8 y}{8} = \frac{4}{8}

$\frac{8 y}{8} = \frac{4}{8}$

Step 2.1.2

Divide

y

$y$ by

1

$1$ .

y = \frac{4}{8}

$y = \frac{4}{8}$

y = \frac{4}{8}

$y = \frac{4}{8}$

y = \frac{4}{8}

$y = \frac{4}{8}$

Step 3.1.1

Factor

4

$4$ out of

4

$4$ .

y = \frac{4 (1)}{8}

$y = \frac{4 (1)}{8}$

Step 3.1.2

Cancel the common factors.

Step 3.1.2.1

Factor

4

$4$ out of

8

$8$ .

y = \frac{4 \cdot 1}{4 \cdot 2}

$y = \frac{4 \cdot 1}{4 \cdot 2}$

Step 3.1.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

y = \frac{4 \cdot 1}{4 \cdot 2}

$y = \frac{4 \cdot 1}{4 \cdot 2}$

Step 3.1.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

y = \frac{1}{2}

$y = \frac{1}{2}$

y = \frac{1}{2}

$y = \frac{1}{2}$

y = \frac{1}{2}

$y = \frac{1}{2}$

y = \frac{1}{2}

$y = \frac{1}{2}$

Step 4

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

y = \frac{1}{2}

$y = \frac{1}{2}$

Decimal Form:

y = 0.5

$y = 0.5$

8 y = 4

$8 y = 4$
