\frac{5}{4}x-10=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{5}{4}x=y+10
Add 10 to both sides.
\frac{\frac{5}{4}x}{\frac{5}{4}}=\frac{y+10}{\frac{5}{4}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{5}{4}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y+10}{\frac{5}{4}}
Dividing by \frac{5}{4} undoes the multiplication by \frac{5}{4}.
x=\frac{4y}{5}+8
Divide y+10 by \frac{5}{4} by multiplying y+10 by the reciprocal of \frac{5}{4}.
