xy-x=y
Subtract x from both sides.
\left(y-1\right)x=y
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(y-1\right)x}{y-1}=\frac{y}{y-1}
Divide both sides by y-1.
x=\frac{y}{y-1}
Dividing by y-1 undoes the multiplication by y-1.
xy-y=x
Subtract y from both sides.
\left(x-1\right)y=x
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(x-1\right)y}{x-1}=\frac{x}{x-1}
Divide both sides by x-1.
y=\frac{x}{x-1}
Dividing by x-1 undoes the multiplication by x-1.
