Question 482531: I am trying to figure out how to break down the steps to solve a problem like this one. I have problems solving linear equations that involve fractions. I have used other websites but they do not give me step by step instruction on how to solve these type of problems. y=-2/3-12

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=(-2/3)-12
LCD = 3 for the right side
y= (-2-36)/3
y= -38/3
