9\left(-2\right)y-81=25y+220
Multiply both sides of the equation by 45, the least common multiple of 5,9.
-18y-81=25y+220
Multiply 9 and -2 to get -18.
-18y-81-25y=220
Subtract 25y from both sides.
-43y-81=220
Combine -18y and -25y to get -43y.
-43y=220+81
Add 81 to both sides.
-43y=301
Add 220 and 81 to get 301.
y=\frac{301}{-43}
Divide both sides by -43.
y=-7
Divide 301 by -43 to get -7.
