ny-nn=y+2
Multiply both sides of the equation by n.
ny-n^{2}=y+2
Multiply n and n to get n^{2}.
ny-n^{2}-y=2
Subtract y from both sides.
ny-y=2+n^{2}
Add n^{2} to both sides.
\left(n-1\right)y=2+n^{2}
Combine all terms containing y.
\left(n-1\right)y=n^{2}+2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(n-1\right)y}{n-1}=\frac{n^{2}+2}{n-1}
Divide both sides by n-1.
y=\frac{n^{2}+2}{n-1}
Dividing by n-1 undoes the multiplication by n-1.
