Can someone show me the working out for this questions and not just tell me the answer please the equation is;

5y/6 - 2y/3 + 5 = y


Sagot :

do the same thing to both sides as long as not divide by zero
PEMDAS
parenthasees
exponents (include square root)
multiplication or division
addition or subtraciton


5y/6-2y/3+5=y
interesting
isolate the variable
subtract 5 from both sides
5y/6-2y/3=y-5
subtract y from both sides
5y/6-2y/3-y=-5
try to clear fractions by multplying by greatest common multiplue of 6,3, and 1 which happens to be 6
multiply both sides by 6
5y-(2 times 2y)-6y=-30
5y-4y-6y=-30
add like terms
-5y=-30
multiply -1
5y=30
divide both sides by 5
y=6
