$\\frac{y}{6} = -3$

$\\frac{y}{6} = -3$

$\frac{y}{6} = -3$

To solve for $ y $, we multiply both sides of the equation $ \frac{y}{6} = -3 $ by 6. This gives us $ 6\times\frac{y}{6}=6\times(-3) $.

Simplifying the left side, $ 6\times\frac{y}{6} $ cancels out to $ y $. On the right side, $ 6\times(-3)= -18 $.

$ y = -18 $
