| ( | y | − | 3 | ) | ÷ | 7 | + | 11 | = | y | + | 2 |
| Left side of the equation = | y | × | 1 7 | − | 3 | × | 1 7 | + | 11 |
| = | y | × | 1 7 | − | 3 7 | + | 11 |
| = | 1 7 | y | + | 74 7 |
1 7 | y | + | 74 7 | = | y | + | 2 |
1 7 | y | − | y | = | 2 | − | 74 7 |
| - | 6 7 | y | = | 2 | − | 74 7 |
| - | 6 7 | y | = | - | 60 7 |
60 7 | = | 6 7 | y |
6 7 | y | = | 60 7 |
| y | = | 60 7 | ÷ | 6 7 |
| = | 60 7 | × | 7 6 |
| = | 10 | × | 1 |
| y | = | 10 |
