6xxy\left(23+16+1\right)\times 2=16y\times 2\left(23\times 2+6\times 2\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Variable y cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 16xy, the least common multiple of 16,x,y.
6x^{2}y\left(23+16+1\right)\times 2=16y\times 2\left(23\times 2+6\times 2\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Multiply x and x to get x^{2}.

Multiply 6 and 40 to get 240.
480x^{2}y=16y\times 2\left(23\times 2+6\times 2\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Multiply 240 and 2 to get 480.
480x^{2}y=32y\left(23\times 2+6\times 2\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Multiply 16 and 2 to get 32.
480x^{2}y=32y\left(46+12\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Do the multiplications.
480x^{2}y=32y\times 58+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Add 46 and 12 to get 58.
480x^{2}y=1856y+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Multiply 32 and 58 to get 1856.
480x^{2}y=1856y+16x\left(46+16\right)
Multiply 2 and 23 to get 46.
480x^{2}y=1856y+16x\times 62
Add 46 and 16 to get 62.
480x^{2}y=1856y+992x
Multiply 16 and 62 to get 992.
480x^{2}y-1856y=992x
Subtract 1856y from both sides.
\left(480x^{2}-1856\right)y=992x
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(480x^{2}-1856\right)y}{480x^{2}-1856}=\frac{992x}{480x^{2}-1856}
Divide both sides by 480x^{2}-1856.
y=\frac{992x}{480x^{2}-1856}
Dividing by 480x^{2}-1856 undoes the multiplication by 480x^{2}-1856.
y=\frac{31x}{15x^{2}-58}
Divide 992x by 480x^{2}-1856.
y=\frac{31x}{15x^{2}-58}\text{, }y\neq 0
Variable y cannot be equal to 0.
6xxy\left(23+16+1\right)\times 2=16y\times 2\left(23\times 2+6\times 2\right)+16x\left(2\times 23+16\right)
Variable y cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 16xy, the least common multiple of 16,x,y.
