y/5-1=y/3-3/5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%2F5-1=y%2F3-3%2F5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Since expressions have division by 5 and 3,
\n" ); document.write( "multiply each side by 15
\n" ); document.write( " $\"15%28y%2F5-1%29=15%28y%2F3-3%2F5%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3y+-+15+=+5y+-+9+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "add -5y to each side
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+-2y+-+15+=++-+9+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "add 15 to each side
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+-2y+=++6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "divide by -2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=++-+3+\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
