Question

1. enter the value of y that makes the given equation true.

$y + 7\frac{1}{3} = 18\frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate y term

$y = 18\frac{2}{3} - 7\frac{1}{3}$

Step2: Subtract mixed numbers

First convert to improper fractions:
$18\frac{2}{3} = \frac{56}{3}$, $7\frac{1}{3} = \frac{22}{3}$
$y = \frac{56}{3} - \frac{22}{3} = \frac{34}{3}$

Step3: Convert back to mixed number

$y = 11\frac{1}{3}$

Answer:

$11\frac{1}{3}$
