Answer:
y = mnp/(m + n)
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume that both capital y and small case y are meant to be the same variable. If not, let me know, and I'll solve it again for small case y.
y/m + y/n = p
Factor y out on the left side.
y(1/m + 1/n) = p
y = p/(1/m + 1/n)
Multiply the right side by (mn)/(mn).
y = pmn/[(1/m + 1/n)mn]
y = pmn/(n + m)
y = mnp/(m + n)
