Question

5y- 3/5 = 4/5

Answer 1

we want 5y by itself so first we have to subtract 3/5 from both sides. Can you do that ?

Answer 2

oops....I meant add 3/5 to both sides

Answer 3

I'm not sure how to add 3/5 to both sides

Answer 4

5y - 3/5 + 3/5 = 4/5 + 3/5
as you can see the 3/5's cancel out on the right side leaving us with 5y = 4/5 + 3/5.
Understand ?

Answer 5

cancel out on the left side
