Question

Solve this equation.$\frac{2\mathrm{b}}{3}-5=3$

Answer 1

Find the value of$\mathrm{b}$.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\frac{2\mathrm{b}}{3}-5& =& 3\\ \frac{2\mathrm{b}}{3}& =& 3+5\\ \frac{2\mathrm{b}}{3}& =& 8\\ 2\mathrm{b}& =& 8\times 3\\ 2\mathrm{b}& =& 24\\ \mathrm{b}& =& \frac{24}{2}\\ \mathrm{b}& =& 12\end{array}$

$\therefore$The value of$\mathrm{b}$ is$12$
