Question

What is b/13+12=19

Answer 1

Subtract 12 on both sides. What do you get?

Answer 2

I'm sorry I don't understand can u explain a little more please

Answer 3

So, we want to solve for b, right?

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

So how do we solve for b? We want to get b all alone, right?

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

So, in order to do that, we need to move everything besides b to the right side

So, we have

b/13 + 12 = 19

The first step is to get the 12 to the other side. Since we're adding 12 to b/13, we need to do the opposite to get it on the other side.

What's the opposite of addition?

Answer 8

Subtraction

Answer 9

So we subtract 12 on both sides

b/13 + 12 - 12 = 19 - 12

We get rid of 12 on the left side and we're left with

b/13 = 19 - 12

What is 19 - 12 = ?

Answer 10

7

Answer 11

Good job

Answer 12

@TheSmartOne continue brotha

Answer 13

So b=7 thank u

Answer 14

No, we're not done yet xD

b/13 = 19 - 12

so 19 - 12 = 7

So replace 19 - 12 with 7 since they're the same thing :)

We get

b/13 = 7

Now, we still have b/13

We want b all alone

What is 13 doing to b? Multiplication or division?

What is the opposite of that? Since we have to get it to the other side :)

Answer 15

Divide

Answer 16

yes, it's getting divided, and to bring it to the other side we have to multiply

b/13 * 13 = 7 13

b = ?

Answer 17

Can u please write it how to solve it so I can see to understand I can't read very well it would help to see the problem solved please

Answer 18

yes, it's getting divided, and to bring it to the other side we have to multiply

b/13 * 13 = 7 * 13

b = ?

eh, do you under now? I accidentally forgot the multiplication sign between 7 and 13

Answer 19

I got b = 91 then what do I do

Answer 20

That's all. You have b by itself. And so that's your answer :)

Answer 21

Ok thank u very much

Answer 22

Anytime! :)
