Question 522494
{{{2(b-3)=3(b-1)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{2b-6=3b-3}}} Distribute.



{{{2b=3b-3+6}}} Add {{{6}}} to both sides.



{{{2b-3b=-3+6}}} Subtract {{{3b}}} from both sides.



{{{-b=-3+6}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-b=3}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{b=(3)/(-1)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-1}}} to isolate {{{b}}}.



{{{b=-3}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{b=-3}}}
