1st: 13•2+4y=52
Next multiply from left to right and rearrange order to reflect formula below.
2nd: 4y+26=52
3rd: subtract 26 from each side
4y+26-26=52-26
4y=52-26
Afterwards simply the expression to reflect below
4y=26
4th: Divide each side by the same factor
4y/4 = 26/4
*cancel what’s in the numerator and denominator
Divide
y=26/4
y=13/2
Answer: 13/2
