Which steps can be used to solve for the value of y 2/3 (y+57) = 178

Allow me to demonstrate:

You have said: 2/3 (y + 57) = 178

Multiply each side by 3 : 2 (y + 57) = 534

Divide each side by 2 : y + 57 = 267

Subtract 57 from each side: y = 210

And there you see a series of steps that can be used

to solve the given equation for the value of 'y'.

There are others, but all lead to the same result.
