Question 612488
{{{9(4b-1)=2(9b+3)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{36b-9=18b+6}}} Distribute.



{{{36b=18b+6+9}}} Add {{{9}}} to both sides.



{{{36b-18b=6+9}}} Subtract {{{18b}}} from both sides.



{{{18b=6+9}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{18b=15}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{b=(15)/(18)}}} Divide both sides by {{{18}}} to isolate {{{b}}}.



{{{b=5/6}}} Reduce.
