:( If anyone knows how to set this up and explain to me I would be so grateful.
2/3(y-3) = 1/3y
I know to remove the parenthesis, I multiply 2/3 x 3 (which is 2)
so: 2/3y - 2 = 1/3y
Now I know I must combine the y's and change the sign to positive AND THAT IS WHERE I GET STUCK
isn't it: 3/2(2/3)y = 3/2(1/3)y + 2??
then: y=1/2+2
then: y=2 1/2
But the answer in my book is 6
Please help me find what I am doing wrong.
Thanks so much
