24+21y-16y=20
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
24+5y=20
Combine 21y and -16y to get 5y.
5y=20-24
Subtract 24 from both sides.
5y=-4
Subtract 24 from 20 to get -4.
y=\frac{-4}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=-\frac{4}{5}
Fraction \frac{-4}{5} can be rewritten as -\frac{4}{5} by extracting the negative sign.
