Solve 5(4,25-y)=320y

$$5 ( 4,25 - y ) = 320 y$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{17}{260}\approx 0,065384615$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 4,25-y.

$$21,25-5y=320y$$

Subtract 320y from both sides.

$$21,25-5y-320y=0$$

Combine -5y and -320y to get -325y.

$$21,25-325y=0$$

Subtract 21,25 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-325y=-21,25$$

Divide both sides by -325.

$$y=\frac{-21,25}{-325}$$

Expand \frac{-21,25}{-325} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$y=\frac{-2125}{-32500}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-2125}{-32500} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -125.

$$y=\frac{17}{260}$$
