[tex]\sf 8(5) = 40[/tex]

[tex]\sf 40 = 40[/tex]

Answer:

The answer is 5!

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we have to solve the equation.

8 × y = 40 [ 8 multiplied with a no. gives 40]

To know the value of the variable 'y' we have to divide 40 by 8 by transporting 8 to the Right hand side of the equation.

y = 40 ÷ 8

  = 5
