[tex] \frac{1}{4} y+ \frac{3}{4} =2[/tex]
First, replace the '1' in [tex] \frac{1}{4} y[/tex] with 'y'.
[tex] \frac{y}{4} + \frac{3}{4} =2[/tex]
Second, join the denominators since they are the same.
[tex] \frac{y+3}{4} =2[/tex]
Third, multiply both of the sides by '4'.
[tex]y + 3 = 8[/tex]
Fourth, subtract '3' from both of the sides.
[tex]y = 8 - 3[/tex]
Fifth, subtract 8 - 3 to get 5.
[tex]y = 5[/tex]
Answer: y = 5
