3\left(x-4\right)-2\left(y-5\right)=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
3x-12-2\left(y-5\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-4.
3x-12-2y+10=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by y-5.
3x-2-2y=0
Add -12 and 10 to get -2.
3x-2y=2
Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
3x=2+2y
Add 2y to both sides.
3x=2y+2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{2y+2}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{2y+2}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
3\left(x-4\right)-2\left(y-5\right)=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
3x-12-2\left(y-5\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-4.
3x-12-2y+10=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by y-5.
3x-2-2y=0
Add -12 and 10 to get -2.
-2-2y=-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-2y=-3x+2
Add 2 to both sides.
-2y=2-3x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{2-3x}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{2-3x}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=\frac{3x}{2}-1
Divide -3x+2 by -2.
