3x*2y = 10
Simplify the left side by multiplying all of the constants:
3x*2y = (3 x 2)x*y3x*2y = 6x*y
Divide each side by 6x
| 6x*y | |
| 6x |
| = |
| 10 |
| 6x |
Cancelling the 6x on the right side:
| y = | 10 |
| 6x |
Our constants can be simplified using our greatest common factor calculator which gives us 2
Simplifying top and bottom:
| y = | 5 |
| 3x |
| y = | 5 |
| 3x |
