3\left(5+2y\right)-16y=60
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
15+6y-16y=60
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 5+2y.
15-10y=60
Combine 6y and -16y to get -10y.
-10y=60-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
-10y=45
Subtract 15 from 60 to get 45.
y=\frac{45}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10.
y=-\frac{9}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{45}{-10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.
