Question

Match the following with their equivalent expressions.

• A. $\frac{x}{2y}$
• B. 3x
• C. x + 2y
• D. y - 3

Answer 1

Thrice of x is 3 multiplied by x
$\Rightarrow 3\times x=3x$

Quotient of x and 2y is x divided by 2y
$\Rightarrow x÷2y=\frac{x}{2y}$

2y increased by x is sum of 2y and x
$\Rightarrow 2y+x=x+2y$

3 less than y is 3 subtracted from y
$\Rightarrow y-3$
