Full solution

Q. Solve for yy.\newliney31=1\frac{y}{3} - 1 = 1\newliney=y = _____\_\_\_\_\_
  1. Add 11 to isolate variable: Add 11 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with the variable yy. \newliney31+1=1+1\frac{y}{3} - 1 + 1 = 1 + 1
  2. Simplify both sides: Simplify both sides of the equation. y/3=2y/3 = 2
  3. Multiply by 33: Multiply both sides of the equation by 33 to solve for y.\newline(y3)×3=2×3(\frac{y}{3}) \times 3 = 2 \times 3
  4. Find value of y: Simplify the equation to find the value of yy.y=6y = 6
