\frac{3x}{2y}=\frac{2}{20}
Divide both sides by 20.
\frac{3x}{2y}=\frac{1}{10}
Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{20} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
5\times 3x=y
Multiply both sides of the equation by 10y, the least common multiple of 2y,10.
15x=y
Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.
\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{y}{15}
Divide both sides by 15.
x=\frac{y}{15}
Dividing by 15 undoes the multiplication by 15.
\frac{3x}{2y}=\frac{2}{20}
Divide both sides by 20.
\frac{3x}{2y}=\frac{1}{10}
Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{20} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
5\times 3x=y
Variable y cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 10y, the least common multiple of 2y,10.
15x=y
Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.
y=15x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
y=15x\text{, }y\neq 0
Variable y cannot be equal to 0.
