Let's solve the equation step by step:

Given:
\[
3y - 3 = 2
\]

### Step 1: Isolate the variable term
Add 3 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant on the left side:
\[
3y - 3 + 3 = 2 + 3
\]
\[
3y = 5
\]

### Step 2: Solve for \( y \)
Divide both sides by 3 to solve for \( y \):
\[
y = \frac{5}{3}
\]

So the correct answer is:

**A. \( y = \frac{5}{3} \)**
