4\left(4-4y\right)-1=4-3y-2y
Combine -3y and -y to get -4y.
16-16y-1=4-3y-2y
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 4-4y.
15-16y=4-3y-2y
Subtract 1 from 16 to get 15.
15-16y=4-5y
Combine -3y and -2y to get -5y.
15-16y+5y=4
Add 5y to both sides.
15-11y=4
Combine -16y and 5y to get -11y.
-11y=4-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
-11y=-11
Subtract 15 from 4 to get -11.
y=\frac{-11}{-11}
Divide both sides by -11.
y=1
Divide -11 by -11 to get 1.
