.5(6-y)=y

Solution for .5(6-y)=y equation:

Simplifying
0.5(6 + -1y) = y
(6 * 0.5 + -1y * 0.5) = y
(3 + -0.5y) = y

Solving
3 + -0.5y = y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1y' to each side of the equation.
3 + -0.5y + -1y = y + -1y

Combine like terms: -0.5y + -1y = -1.5y
3 + -1.5y = y + -1y

Combine like terms: y + -1y = 0
3 + -1.5y = 0

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + -1.5y = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + -1.5y = 0 + -3
-1.5y = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
-1.5y = -3

Divide each side by '-1.5'.
