1.5x+3=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
1.5x=y-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
\frac{1.5x}{1.5}=\frac{y-3}{1.5}
Divide both sides of the equation by 1.5, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y-3}{1.5}
Dividing by 1.5 undoes the multiplication by 1.5.
x=\frac{2y}{3}-2
Divide y-3 by 1.5 by multiplying y-3 by the reciprocal of 1.5.
