Equation
Let the number = x
(2/3)x + x = 20 Change the x to thirds.
(2/3)x + 3/3x = 20 3/3 = 1 Now combine the like terms.
(2 + 3)/3 = 20 2/3 + 3/3 = 5/3
(5/3) x = 20 Multiply both sides by 3/5
(5/3)*(3/5)x = 20*3/5 Complete the multiplication on the right
x = 4 * 3 Combine
x = 12 Answer
Alrighty, first off you would move the 2y to the left side and change its sign and move the constant (2) to the other side and change its sign.
3y - 2y = 5x - 2
Next you would collect the like terms for y.
y = 5x - 2
And because you cannot do anything else with the problem that is the final answer: y = 5x - 2
Hope this helps! :)
