Question

14/(3y+5) = 3/ycan someone please explain the steps for me?

Answer 1

`(14)/((3y+5))=(3)/(y)`

(3y + 5) is dividing on the left, then it will multiply on the right

y is dividing on the right, then it will multiply on the left

`14y=3(3y+5)`

Distributing:

`\begin{gathered} 14y=3(3y)+3(5) \\ 14y=9y+15 \end{gathered}`

9y is adding on the right, then it will subtract on the left

14y - 9y = 15

5y = 15

5 is multiplying on the left, then it will divide on the right

y = 15/5

y = 3
