y+3=9y
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
y+3-9y=0
Subtract 9y from both sides.
-8y+3=0
Combine y and -9y to get -8y.
-8y=-3
Subtract 3 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
y=\frac{-3}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
y=\frac{3}{8}
Fraction \frac{-3}{-8} can be simplified to \frac{3}{8} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
