zx=5-\frac{2}{3}y
Subtract \frac{2}{3}y from both sides.
zx=-\frac{2y}{3}+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{zx}{z}=\frac{-\frac{2y}{3}+5}{z}
Divide both sides by z.
x=\frac{-\frac{2y}{3}+5}{z}
Dividing by z undoes the multiplication by z.
x=\frac{15-2y}{3z}
Divide 5-\frac{2y}{3} by z.
\frac{2}{3}y=5-zx
Subtract zx from both sides.
\frac{2}{3}y=5-xz
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{2}{3}y}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{5-xz}{\frac{2}{3}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{2}{3}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
y=\frac{5-xz}{\frac{2}{3}}
Dividing by \frac{2}{3} undoes the multiplication by \frac{2}{3}.
y=\frac{15-3xz}{2}
Divide 5-zx by \frac{2}{3} by multiplying 5-zx by the reciprocal of \frac{2}{3}.
