Given the numerical expression:

3x + 4y = 19/3x +6y = 33

Can be written as,

3x + 4y = 19/3x +6y - 33 

Solution:

We can simplify the given numerical expression by transposing 3x + 4y on the other side of the equation, note that when transposing a number the sign changes.

= 19/3x + 6y - 3x - 4y -33

We can write 19/3x as 6.3333, in order to easily combine like terms.

= 6.333x -3x  + 6y - 4y -33

= 3.333x + 2y -33

Final answer:

3.333x + 2y - 33
