Your first statement is not an equation since there is nothing to the right of the = sign. You also need to show parentheses to clarify meaning.

There is no unique solution to what you wrote.
3/2y-3/2y+4
the problem is 3 is over2y then minus 3 over 2y+4 then I work it out. I want someone to check and see if it right.
You cannot solve for y unless there is an "=" sign and something on the other side of it.

You should have written your problem
3/(2y) - 3/(2y+4) = (some constant)

If the constant is zero, then there is no solution for y, because 2y + 4 cannot equal 2y.

If all you are trying to do is rewrite
3/(2y) - 3/(2y+4) with a common denominator, you should have said so.
