-2y / y = -2

' y ' is the common factor between the numerator & denominator so it divides out leaving just -2.

-2y/y=-2

y is common is nominator and denominator. Cut y so the answer will be -2

(3x6)/6 = 3

"3y" means "3 times y"
i.e. 3y = y + y + y
and (3)(6) = 6 + 6 + 6
The difference is y + y + y doesn't simplify to simpler than 3y
So 3y divided by y
and 3 x 6 divided by 6 are done in the same way
3y divided by y = 3
as (3)(6) fivided by 6 is 3

Other examples: 12x/2x = 6 ; 15x^2/3x = 5x, 24xyx/8xz = 3y
And -2y/y = ? Then you've done it yourself!

-2y/y
= (-y - y)/y
= -y/y - y/y
= -1 - 1
= -2
