Write 2.5x-0.3/3 =1/6y in standard form. Identify A, B, C. I know the answer is 2.5x - 5y = 3, but how?

2.5x - 0.3/3 = (1/6)y


mutiply each by 6


15x - .6 = y


15x - y = .6 to get rid of the fraction, multiply each by 5


75x - 5y = 3





Is the original problem this:


(2.5x - .3)/3 = (1/6)y


then the answer is 25x - 5y = 3





2.5x is not correct in the answer, if it's 2.5 in the original problem. Please check both. If your book has it that way both times, the book has an error.
