Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     31-(5*(b-2))=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  31 -  5 • (b - 2)  = 0 

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  41 - 5b  = 0 

Step  3  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 3.1      Solve  :    -5b+41 = 0 

 Subtract  41  from both sides of the equation : 
                      -5b = -41
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  5b = 41


Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
                     b = 41/5 = 8.200
