\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{5}{16}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{1}{4}x=y-\frac{5}{16}
Subtract \frac{5}{16} from both sides.
\frac{\frac{1}{4}x}{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{y-\frac{5}{16}}{\frac{1}{4}}
Multiply both sides by 4.
x=\frac{y-\frac{5}{16}}{\frac{1}{4}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{4} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{4}.
x=4y-\frac{5}{4}
Divide y-\frac{5}{16} by \frac{1}{4} by multiplying y-\frac{5}{16} by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{4}.
