R=3-a%28b%2B2d%29 Start with the given equation


R=3-ab-2ad Distribute



0=3-ab-2ad-RSubtract R from both sides


ab=3-2ad-R Add ab to both sides


b=%283-2ad-R%29%2Fa Divide both sides by a

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is b=%283-2ad-R%29%2Fa
