Answer:

y = 1

Explanation:

You need to find the a multiple divisible by all numbers, in this case that would be 90

you multiply everything so the denominator is 90

7/18 = 35/90

5/6 = 75/90

4/15 = 24/90

13/45 = 26/90

So 8 35/90 - (1 75/90 + y) = 3 24/90 + 2 26/90

6 50/90 - y = 5 50/90

subtract 6 50/90 from both sides

-y = -1

divide both sides by -1

y = 1
