Question 236103: in the expression w/x - y/z = 1 the letters can be replaced by the numbers (1,2,3,4) but not necessarily in that order. the sum of w and y is

Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
w = 3
x = 1
y = 4
z = 2
w/x - y/z = 1 becomes:
3/1 - 4/2 = 1 which becomes:
3 - 2 = 1 which becomes:
1 = 1
since w = 3 and y equals 4 then:
w + y = 3 + 4 = 7
your answer is e).
