3y - (8 / 12) \: \: = (y / 5) \\ (36y - 8) / 12 = y / 5 \\ 5(36y - 8) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 12y \\ 180y - 40 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 12y \\ 168y \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 40 \\ y \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 40 / 168
