\frac{5}{2}-\frac{3}{4}y=x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-\frac{3}{4}y=x-\frac{5}{2}
Subtract \frac{5}{2} from both sides.
\frac{-\frac{3}{4}y}{-\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{x-\frac{5}{2}}{-\frac{3}{4}}
Divide both sides of the equation by -\frac{3}{4}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
y=\frac{x-\frac{5}{2}}{-\frac{3}{4}}
Dividing by -\frac{3}{4} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{3}{4}.
y=\frac{10-4x}{3}
Divide x-\frac{5}{2} by -\frac{3}{4} by multiplying x-\frac{5}{2} by the reciprocal of -\frac{3}{4}.
