Question 24378
<pre><b><font size = 4> 700 + y
覧覧覧覧覧 = 106
    7

Clear of fractions by multiplying on both sides
by LCD of <font color = "red">7</font>


   700 + y
<font color = "red">7ｷ</font>覧覧覧覧覧 = <font color = "red">7ｷ</font>106
      7

Cancel the 7's on the left, multiply on the right

<font size = 3><sub>1</sub></font>   700 + y
<s>7</s>ｷ覧覧覧覧覧 = 742
      <s>7</s>
      <font size = 3><sup>1</sup></font>

   700 + y = 742

Subtract 700 from both sides

         y = 42
