Pls i need with this one. find the value of y in the equation

y = 2 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by the denominator. This gives a linear equation that can be solved in the usual way.

... 3 = 8(y -2)

Divide by 8.

... 3/8 = y - 2

Add 2

... 2 3/8 = y

In problems involving rational expressions, it often works well to multiply by the product of the denominators, or by their least common multiple, if that is easy to find. Doing this eliminates fractions. Here there is only one denominator (y-2), so we multiply by that.
