How do you solve #(5b)/3 = 30#?

Answer 1

Abigail Allen

#5b=90#
#b=18#

When you enlarge both sides of your equation (3 times) and solve the question:

#5b=30*3#

#5b=90#

#b=90/5#

#b=18#

This is your solution.

#b=18#

To solve (5b)/3 = 30, you would first multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate the variable b. This yields 5b = 90. Then, divide both sides by 5 to solve for b, resulting in b = 18.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
