Well to find this answer, we will have to find a common denominator for each fraction so it will be easier to subtract.
9 is a common denominator for both numbers since both denominators, 9 and 3, can go into 9. We don't have to change 2/9, but we will have to change 1/3.
Multiply 1 and 3 by 3 to get our new fraction 3/9.
2/9-3/9= -1/9
So our answer would be - 1/9. Hope I helped!

2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y -15

Olegator [25]

Simplify 2.8y + 6 + 0.2y to 3y + 6

subtract 3y from both sides

simplify 5y - 15 - 3y to 2y - 15

add 15 to both sides

simplify 6 + 15 to 21

divide both sides by 2

switch sides

Answer: y = 21/2

*in decimal form this would be 10.5
