y=\frac{239}{5}-\frac{1}{5}x
Divide each term of 239-x by 5 to get \frac{239}{5}-\frac{1}{5}x.
\frac{239}{5}-\frac{1}{5}x=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-\frac{1}{5}x=y-\frac{239}{5}
Subtract \frac{239}{5} from both sides.
\frac{-\frac{1}{5}x}{-\frac{1}{5}}=\frac{y-\frac{239}{5}}{-\frac{1}{5}}
Multiply both sides by -5.
x=\frac{y-\frac{239}{5}}{-\frac{1}{5}}
Dividing by -\frac{1}{5} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{1}{5}.
x=239-5y
Divide y-\frac{239}{5} by -\frac{1}{5} by multiplying y-\frac{239}{5} by the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{5}.
y=\frac{239}{5}-\frac{1}{5}x
Divide each term of 239-x by 5 to get \frac{239}{5}-\frac{1}{5}x.
