-12\left(-\frac{3y-2}{2}\right)+24y=2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
12\times \frac{3y-2}{2}+24y=2
Multiply -12 and -1 to get 12.
12\left(\frac{3}{2}y-1\right)+24y=2
Divide each term of 3y-2 by 2 to get \frac{3}{2}y-1.
12\times \frac{3}{2}y-12+24y=2
Use the distributive property to multiply 12 by \frac{3}{2}y-1.
\frac{12\times 3}{2}y-12+24y=2
Express 12\times \frac{3}{2} as a single fraction.
\frac{36}{2}y-12+24y=2
Multiply 12 and 3 to get 36.
18y-12+24y=2
Divide 36 by 2 to get 18.
42y-12=2
Combine 18y and 24y to get 42y.
42y=2+12
Add 12 to both sides.
42y=14
Add 2 and 12 to get 14.
y=\frac{14}{42}
Divide both sides by 42.
y=\frac{1}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{14}{42} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 14.
