| ( | 539 | − | y | ) | ÷ | y | = | 69 1000 |
| Multiply both sides of the equation by: | y |
| ( | 539 | − | y | ) | = | 69 1000 | y |
| 539 | − | y | = | 69 1000 | y |
| - | y | − | 69 1000 | y | = | - | 539 |
| - | 1069 1000 | y | = | - | 539 |
| 539 | = | 1069 1000 | y |
1069 1000 | y | = | 539 |
| y | = | 539 | ÷ | 1069 1000 |
| = | 539 | × | 1000 1069 |
| y | = | 539000 1069 |
| y | = | 504.209542 |
