9x=2y
Multiply both sides of the equation by 9y, the least common multiple of y,9.
\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{2y}{9}
Divide both sides by 9.
x=\frac{2y}{9}
Dividing by 9 undoes the multiplication by 9.
9x=2y
Variable y cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 9y, the least common multiple of y,9.
2y=9x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{9x}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{9x}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=\frac{9x}{2}\text{, }y\neq 0
Variable y cannot be equal to 0.
