    25 = y/3


    1. Do the opposite of division, which is multiplication. 3 * 25 = y


                                                                                                        75  =  y


    Check answer: Put 75 in place of ( y )  >  25 = 75/3


                                                                             25  =  25


    Note:  You can rewrite the problem to help you see it better.


                                      25 = y ÷ 3               or                y ÷ 3 = 25


                                    * 3          * 3                                      * 3   * 3


                                  ------------------------                      ----------------------


                                     75  =  y                                           y    =   75
