15?

yes

Answer 18

so now we have 1-2/3y=15-y/5

Answer 19

Answer 20

because you told me 15, right?

Answer 21

the LCD is 15

Answer 22

oh okay go one from that point.

Answer 23

do you put 15 under the 1?

Answer 24

1/15 yes

Answer 25

ok so 1/15- 2y/15 = 9/15 - y/15 + 3/15?

Answer 26

okay now we need to get y alone how?

Answer 27

I am not sure

Answer 28

look at -2y/15+ y/5 and the reason it is a plus because it crossed the equals so the sign goes from - to +

Answer 29

it was y/15 forgot the one

Answer 30

because we have -2y/15 +y/15, didive by y/15 so you will have -2y/15 /y/15 now do you see what can happen now?

Answer 31

hey I will not give answers sorry..

Answer 32

okay so I guess since are you off line I am no longer needed. Good luck
