y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=3P_{x}\times 2P_{x}\times \frac{T}{3P_{x}}
Variable P_{y} cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3P_{x}P_{y}, the least common multiple of P_{y},3P_{x}.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=3P_{x}^{2}\times 2\times \frac{T}{3P_{x}}
Multiply P_{x} and P_{x} to get P_{x}^{2}.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=6P_{x}^{2}\times \frac{T}{3P_{x}}
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=\frac{6T}{3P_{x}}P_{x}^{2}
Express 6\times \frac{T}{3P_{x}} as a single fraction.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=\frac{2T}{P_{x}}P_{x}^{2}
Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=\frac{2TP_{x}^{2}}{P_{x}}
Express \frac{2T}{P_{x}}P_{x}^{2} as a single fraction.
y\times 3P_{x}P_{y}=2P_{x}T
Cancel out P_{x} in both numerator and denominator.
3P_{x}yP_{y}=2P_{x}T
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3P_{x}yP_{y}}{3P_{x}y}=\frac{2P_{x}T}{3P_{x}y}
Divide both sides by 3yP_{x}.
P_{y}=\frac{2P_{x}T}{3P_{x}y}
Dividing by 3yP_{x} undoes the multiplication by 3yP_{x}.
P_{y}=\frac{2T}{3y}
Divide 2P_{x}T by 3yP_{x}.
P_{y}=\frac{2T}{3y}\text{, }P_{y}\neq 0
Variable P_{y} cannot be equal to 0.
