=15y
in algebra when you see a letter by itself (e.g) y or a it always has an invisible 1 in front of it. so in this case 15y divided by y (15y/y) the y on its own is actually 1y. so taking this into account 15y divided by 1y equals (=) to 15y.
we know this because 15 divided by 1 (15/1) equals (=) to 15. because we don't know the value of the letters, in this case y, we assume the value of y = 0. so y has no factor in this equation except standing behind the numbers and doing nothing.
hope this helped someone

What is 15y to the 8th power minus 7y to the 3rd power?
15y^8 - 7y^3 = y^3(15y^5 - 7)
What does y stand for in 15y plus 14 equals 2 times 5y plus 6?
15y+14=2(5y+6) 15y+14=10y+12 15y+14-14=10y+12-14 15y=10y-2 15y-10y=10y-2-10y 5y=-2 y=-2/5
What is the value of 2x3 plus 15y if x equals -7 and y equals 2?
If x = -7, then x3 = -343 so that 2x3 = -686 y = 2 then 15 y = 30 So 2x3 + 15y = -686 + 30 = -656
What are the intercepts of the line 3x 15y 60?
x=20 y=-3
Find slope and y- intercept of line -5x plus 15y equals -15?
The slope is 1/3 and the y-intercept is -1.
