For this case we must solve the following equation of first degree:
[tex]24 = 3y[/tex]
Where the unknown is represented by the variable "y".
So:
Dividing between 3 on both sides of the equation we have:
[tex]\frac {24} {3} = \frac {3} {3}y\\y = 8[/tex]
Thus, the value of the variable "y" is 8.
Answer:
[tex]y = 8[/tex]
