3x+5y-8xy=0
Subtract 8xy from both sides.
3x-8xy=-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(3-8y\right)x=-5y
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(3-8y\right)x}{3-8y}=-\frac{5y}{3-8y}
Divide both sides by 3-8y.
x=-\frac{5y}{3-8y}
Dividing by 3-8y undoes the multiplication by 3-8y.
3x+5y-8xy=0
Subtract 8xy from both sides.
5y-8xy=-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(5-8x\right)y=-3x
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(5-8x\right)y}{5-8x}=-\frac{3x}{5-8x}
Divide both sides by 5-8x.
y=-\frac{3x}{5-8x}
Dividing by 5-8x undoes the multiplication by 5-8x.
