Question
Solve: $-2 \frac{1}{5}=y-4$
✓
Answer
$-2 \frac{1}{5}=y-4$
$\Rightarrow-\frac{11}{5}=y-4$
$\Rightarrow y-4=-\frac{11}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=-\frac{11}{5}+4$
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{-11+20}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{9}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=1 \frac{4}{5}$
$\Rightarrow-\frac{11}{5}=y-4$
$\Rightarrow y-4=-\frac{11}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=-\frac{11}{5}+4$
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{-11+20}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{9}{5}$
$\Rightarrow y=1 \frac{4}{5}$
