5y-x=0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x=-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-x}{-1}=-\frac{5y}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=-\frac{5y}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=5y
Divide -5y by -1.
5y-x=0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5y=x
Add x to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{x}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=\frac{x}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
