  1. First put the term with y in it by itself on one side:

    (add 1/2y to both sides, and then flip the sides)

    1/2y = 1 + 1/3x

    Convert the right side to a single fraction:

    1/2y = (3x + 1)/3x

    Take reciprocal of both sides:

    (equivalent to multiplying by 2y, then by 3x, then dividing by 3x+1)

    2y = 3x/(3x + 1)

    Divide by 2:

    y = 3x/(6x+2)
