Step 1.1.1

Factor $2$ out of $- 2$ .

$2 (- 1) \frac{y}{- 2} = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.1.2

Factor $2$ out of $- 2$ .

$2 \cdot - 1 \frac{y}{2 \cdot - 1} = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.1.3

Cancel the common factor.

$2 \cdot - 1 \frac{y}{2 \cdot - 1} = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.1.4

Rewrite the expression.

$- 1 \frac{y}{- 1} = 4 (- 2)$

$- 1 \frac{y}{- 1} = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.2

Simplify the expression.

Step 1.2.1

Move the negative one from the denominator of $\frac{y}{- 1}$ .

$- 1 (- 1 \cdot y) = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.2.2

Rewrite $- 1 \cdot y$ as $- y$ .

$- 1 (- y) = 4 (- 2)$

$- 1 (- y) = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.3

Multiply $- 1 (- y)$ .

Step 1.3.1

Multiply $- 1$ by $- 1$ .

$1 y = 4 (- 2)$

Step 1.3.2

Multiply $y$ by $1$ .

$y = 4 (- 2)$

$y = 4 (- 2)$

$y = 4 (- 2)$

Step 2

Multiply $4$ by $- 2$ .

$y = - 8$
