Simplify 2/3y+1/3y-y

$\frac{2}{3} y + \frac{1}{3} y - y$

Step 1

Simplify each term.

Combine $\frac{2}{3}$ and $y$ .

$\frac{2 y}{3} + \frac{1}{3} y - y$

Combine $\frac{1}{3}$ and $y$ .

$\frac{2 y}{3} + \frac{y}{3} - y$

Step 2

Simplify terms.

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$- y + \frac{2 y + y}{3}$

Add $2 y$ and $y$ .

$- y + \frac{3 y}{3}$

Cancel the common factor of $3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$- y + \frac{3 y}{3}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$- y + y$

Add $- y$ and $y$ .

$0$
