3\times 3y-24=2\times 5y
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,6.
9y-24=2\times 5y
Multiply 3 and 3 to get 9.
9y-24=10y
Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.
9y-24-10y=0
Subtract 10y from both sides.
-y-24=0
Combine 9y and -10y to get -y.
-y=24
Add 24 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
y=-24
Multiply both sides by -1.
