2+\frac{5}{6}x=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{5}{6}x=y-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\frac{\frac{5}{6}x}{\frac{5}{6}}=\frac{y-2}{\frac{5}{6}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{5}{6}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y-2}{\frac{5}{6}}
Dividing by \frac{5}{6} undoes the multiplication by \frac{5}{6}.
x=\frac{6y-12}{5}
Divide y-2 by \frac{5}{6} by multiplying y-2 by the reciprocal of \frac{5}{6}.
