4-8y-7+1.2y=6.3+2y+14.7 

A little more organized:

-8y + 1.2y + 4 - 7 = 2y + 6.3 + 14.7

-6.8y - 3 = 2y + 21

-8.8y - 3 = 21

-8.8y = 21 + 3

-8.8y = 24

8.8y = -24

y = -24 / 8.8

y = -24 / (88/10)

y = -24 * 10/88

y = -240 / 88

Final answer: $$y = \frac{-30}{11}$$

Please explain these steps further. Thank you.

y = -24 / 8.8

y = -24 / (88/10)

y = -24 * 10/88

y = -240 / 88
