\frac{19674}{18}=\frac{729y-1}{y-1}
Divide both sides by 18.
1093=\frac{729y-1}{y-1}
Divide 19674 by 18 to get 1093.
1093\left(y-1\right)=729y-1
Variable y cannot be equal to 1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by y-1.
1093y-1093=729y-1
Use the distributive property to multiply 1093 by y-1.
1093y-1093-729y=-1
Subtract 729y from both sides.
364y-1093=-1
Combine 1093y and -729y to get 364y.
364y=-1+1093
Add 1093 to both sides.
364y=1092
Add -1 and 1093 to get 1092.
y=\frac{1092}{364}
Divide both sides by 364.
y=3
Divide 1092 by 364 to get 3.
