[tex] \frac{5}{8} y = -1[/tex]

First, change [tex] \frac{5}{8} y[/tex] to [tex] \frac{5y}{8} [/tex] / Your problem should look like: [tex] \frac{5y}{8} = -1[/tex]
Second, multiply both sides by 8. / Your problem should look like: [tex]5y = -8[/tex]
Third, divide both sides by 5. / Your problem should look like: [tex]y = -\frac{8}{5} [/tex]

Answer as fraction: y = [tex]- \frac{8}{5} [/tex]
