x+2x=5y
Add 2x to both sides.
3x=5y
Combine x and 2x to get 3x.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{5y}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{5y}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
-2x+5y=x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5y=x+2x
Add 2x to both sides.
5y=3x
Combine x and 2x to get 3x.
\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{3x}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=\frac{3x}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
