Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
List everything that was done to b to put b into the formula as you find. How do you undo everything so that you just show b on one side of equality and everything else on the other side?

You look at b in the given formula and you see:
b multiplied by h;
That multiplied by .

THOSE were the steps done to b. Now you want to UNDO those. What will be the steps?

(HINT: inverse)
