{{{4b+16+2b=46}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{6b+16=46}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{6b=46-16}}} Subtract {{{16}}} from both sides.



{{{6b=30}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{b=(30)/(6)}}} Divide both sides by {{{6}}} to isolate {{{b}}}.



{{{b=5}}} Reduce.
