2x=6y
Add 6y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{6y}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{6y}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=3y
Divide 6y by 2.
-6y=-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-6y}{-6}=-\frac{2x}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
y=-\frac{2x}{-6}
Dividing by -6 undoes the multiplication by -6.
y=\frac{x}{3}
Divide -2x by -6.
