Answer:

Simplifying

3.2 = 2y

Solving

3.2 = 2y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

3.2 + -2y = 2y + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

3.2 + -2y = 0

Add '-3.2' to each side of the equation.

3.2 + -3.2 + -2y = 0 + -3.2

Combine like terms: 3.2 + -3.2 = 0.0

0.0 + -2y = 0 + -3.2

-2y = 0 + -3.2

Combine like terms: 0 + -3.2 = -3.2

-2y = -3.2

Divide each side by '-2'.

y = 1.6

Simplifying

y = 1.6
