1/6y=5? I need a guide.?

Question

Please walk me through this problem.......

1/6y=5

Answer 1

all you gotta do is the answer divided by the variable so 5 divided by 1/6=20 (check, 1/6x30=5)

Answer 2

isolate y:

1/6y=5

divide both sides by 1/6, or multiply both sides by the reciprocal (same thing), which would be:

y=5*6

so

y=30
