100-373x^{-1}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
100-373\times \frac{1}{x}=y
Reorder the terms.
x\times 100-373=yx
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
x\times 100-373-yx=0
Subtract yx from both sides.
x\times 100-yx=373
Add 373 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\left(100-y\right)x=373
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(100-y\right)x}{100-y}=\frac{373}{100-y}
Divide both sides by 100-y.
x=\frac{373}{100-y}
Dividing by 100-y undoes the multiplication by 100-y.
x=\frac{373}{100-y}\text{, }x\neq 0
Variable x cannot be equal to 0.
