So we need to get b by itself. First, let's remember our properties:
Subtraction Property of Equality
Addition Property of Equality
Division Property of Equality
Multiplication Property of Equality
We will be using these to solve the problem. Let's do it!
[tex]\frac{2b}{3} + 6 = 24\\\\\frac{2b}{3} +6 - 6 = 24 - 6\\\\\frac{2b}{3} * 3 = 18 * 3\\\\2b/2 = 54/2\\b = 27[/tex]
I think the answer is 27. Hope this helps, let me know if I messed up!
