# 4 (3y-8)/12 = y/5 5(3y-8) = 12y ... cross multiply 15y-40 = 12y ... distribute I'll let you finish

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 3y=40y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then dive by three so y=13.33

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

keep it as a fraction though

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

40/3.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
