Answer 4

haha @secret66 .... 15 - y = 7
now bring the y to the LHS nad 7 to the RHS

and u would get

15 - 7 = y

now i hope... u atleast know... how to subtract...:D

Answer 5

@Jamierox4ev3r .. alright.. next time i'll be careful about it..

Answer 6

hey @gudden nice, you redeemed yourself! Now I know it may seem tedious, but its important to show this process so that the user understands! Plus, its in the rules >_>

To break it down visibly:

15-y=7
-15 -15
-------
y=7-15

Answer 7

xD
I just told you to do that because maybe the user don't know how you solved it..
And ask the same question again and again..So its better to explain it than to give direct answers

Answer 8
