Given the expression:


22y=11(3+y)

First we need to get rid of the parenthesis by multiplying 11 by 3 and by y:


\begin{gathered} 22y=11(3+y) \\ \Rightarrow22y=33+11y \end{gathered}

Now we solve for y:


\begin{gathered} 22y=33+11y \\ \Rightarrow22y-11y=33 \\ \Rightarrow11y=33y \\ \Rightarrow y=(33)/(11)=3 \\ y=3 \end{gathered}

Therefore, y=3
