Question

1/3y+11=1/2y-3 What is y???

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

1) add 3 to both sides of your equation to cancel out the -3

end up with: (1/3)y + 14 = (1/2)y

2) multiply both sides of your equation by 2 to cancel out the (1/2)

end up with: (2/3)y + 28 = y

3) subtract (2/3)y from both sides of the equation to cancel out the positive (2/3)y

end up with: 28 = (1/3)y

4) multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to cancel out the (1/3)

end up with: 84 = y
