-12x=-y
Subtract y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-12x}{-12}=-\frac{y}{-12}
Divide both sides by -12.
x=-\frac{y}{-12}
Dividing by -12 undoes the multiplication by -12.
x=\frac{y}{12}
Divide -y by -12.
y=12x
Add 12x to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
