\frac{3}{5}x=\frac{3}{2}-\frac{3}{10}y
Subtract \frac{3}{10}y from both sides.
\frac{3}{5}x=-\frac{3y}{10}+\frac{3}{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{3}{5}x}{\frac{3}{5}}=\frac{-\frac{3y}{10}+\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{3}{5}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{3}{5}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{-\frac{3y}{10}+\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{3}{5}}
Dividing by \frac{3}{5} undoes the multiplication by \frac{3}{5}.
x=\frac{5-y}{2}
Divide \frac{3}{2}-\frac{3y}{10} by \frac{3}{5} by multiplying \frac{3}{2}-\frac{3y}{10} by the reciprocal of \frac{3}{5}.
