Answer:

49/75

Explanation:

y + 2/25 = 11/15

now, we could do it like the other answer and do fraction arithmetic, or we try and multiply everything out to eliminate the fractions :

15y + 30/25 = 11

375y + 30 = 275

375y = 245

y = 245/375 = 49/75

the same result, of course, but a slightly different way to get there.
