The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of y for the equation 6y − 3y − 5 = −3 + 23:

Step 1: 6y − 3y − 5 = −3 + 23
Step 2: 6y − 3y − 5 = 20
Step 3: 3y − 5 = 20

Which of these is most likely the next step?

3y = 4

3y = 15

3y = 25

3y = 5

the next step would be to move the -5 to the other side with the 20 and subtract 20+5 it turns into +5 cause you moved it to the other side and your answer would be 3y=25
