1+4\left(y-2\right)\times 3=-4\times 3
Variable y cannot be equal to 2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4\left(y-2\right), the least common multiple of 4y-8,y-2.
1+12\left(y-2\right)=-4\times 3
Multiply 4 and 3 to get 12.
1+12y-24=-4\times 3
Use the distributive property to multiply 12 by y-2.
-23+12y=-4\times 3
Subtract 24 from 1 to get -23.
-23+12y=-12
Multiply -4 and 3 to get -12.
12y=-12+23
Add 23 to both sides.
12y=11
Add -12 and 23 to get 11.
y=\frac{11}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
