In order to solve this, just get y by itself!

c=%283%2F4%29%2Ay%2Bb given

c-b=%283%2F4%29%2Ay subtract b from both sides

%284%2F3%29%2A%28c-b%29=y multiply both sides by 4/3

y=%284%2F3%29%2A%28c-b%29 switch the sides around

y=4c%2F3-4b%2F3 distribute the 4/3

y=4c%2F3-4b%2F3 final answer

I hope this helps!
