1.2x+1=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
1.2x=y-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
\frac{1.2x}{1.2}=\frac{y-1}{1.2}
Divide both sides of the equation by 1.2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y-1}{1.2}
Dividing by 1.2 undoes the multiplication by 1.2.
x=\frac{5y-5}{6}
Divide y-1 by 1.2 by multiplying y-1 by the reciprocal of 1.2.
