y + 3 5 = 2 3 ( x - 2 )
by multiplying by 15,

(Note: 15 is the least common multiple of the denominators 5 and 3.)
15y+9=10(x−2)
by distributing 10 to x and −2,
15y+9=10x−20
by subtracting 10x and 9,
−10x+15y=−29
by multiplying by (−1),

(Note: This step is optional since the above is already in standard form.)
10x−15y=29,
which is in standard form.
