Firstly, subtract 2 on both sides of the equation:
3y-2=(8-12y)/(4)

Next, multiply both sides by 4:
12y-8=8-12y

Next, add both sides by 12y:
24y-8=8

Next, add both sides by 8:
24y=16

Lastly, divide both sides by 24 and your answer will be
y=(16)/(24)=(2)/(3)

if you wonder why we multiplied by the LCD of 4, is just to do away with the denominators.
