x=\frac{224-2y}{1.5}
Dividing by 1.5 undoes the multiplication by 1.5.
x=\frac{448-4y}{3}
Divide 224-2y by 1.5 by multiplying 224-2y by the reciprocal of 1.5.
2y=224-1.5x
Subtract 1.5x from both sides.
2y=-\frac{3x}{2}+224
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{-\frac{3x}{2}+224}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{-\frac{3x}{2}+224}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=-\frac{3x}{4}+112
