Solve 2/3y+y+5y-20=180

$$\frac { 2 } { 3 } y + y + 5 y - 20 = 180$$

Solve for y

$$y=30$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine \frac{2}{3}y and y to get \frac{5}{3}y.

$$\frac{5}{3}y+5y-20=180$$

Combine \frac{5}{3}y and 5y to get \frac{20}{3}y.

$$\frac{20}{3}y-20=180$$

Add 20 to both sides.

$$\frac{20}{3}y=180+20$$

Add 180 and 20 to get 200.

$$\frac{20}{3}y=200$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{3}{20}, the reciprocal of \frac{20}{3}.

$$y=200\times \frac{3}{20}$$

Express 200\times \frac{3}{20} as a single fraction.

$$y=\frac{200\times 3}{20}$$

Multiply 200 and 3 to get 600.

$$y=\frac{600}{20}$$

Divide 600 by 20 to get 30.

$$y=30$$
