\left(x-4\right)xy=2\times 3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2\left(x-4\right), the least common multiple of 2,x-4.
\left(x^{2}-4x\right)y=2\times 3
Use the distributive property to multiply x-4 by x.
x^{2}y-4xy=2\times 3
Use the distributive property to multiply x^{2}-4x by y.
x^{2}y-4xy=6
Multiply 2 and 3 to get 6.
\left(x^{2}-4x\right)y=6
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(x^{2}-4x\right)y}{x^{2}-4x}=\frac{6}{x^{2}-4x}
Divide both sides by x^{2}-4x.
y=\frac{6}{x^{2}-4x}
Dividing by x^{2}-4x undoes the multiplication by x^{2}-4x.
y=\frac{6}{x\left(x-4\right)}
Divide 6 by x^{2}-4x.
