Answer: 2

Explanation:

3(y+7)=27

first, you want to deposit the 3 to the y and 7, so you are going to times 3 by y and 3 by 7 so it will look like....>>>>

3y+21=27

then, after you have done that, you will want to subtract 21 from both sides, so it should look like this>>>>

3y=6

then, after you have done so, you will divide both sides by 3....like so>>

3y/3=6/3

once you have done that you should have>>>

y=2
