3\times 2=ca+cb
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3c, the least common multiple of c,3.
6=ca+cb
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
ca+cb=6
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
ca=6-cb
Subtract cb from both sides.
ca=6-bc
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{ca}{c}=\frac{6-bc}{c}
Divide both sides by c.
a=\frac{6-bc}{c}
Dividing by c undoes the multiplication by c.
a=-b+\frac{6}{c}
Divide 6-cb by c.
3\times 2=ca+cb

ca+cb=6
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
cb=6-ca
Subtract ca from both sides.
cb=6-ac
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{cb}{c}=\frac{6-ac}{c}
Divide both sides by c.
b=\frac{6-ac}{c}
Dividing by c undoes the multiplication by c.
b=-a+\frac{6}{c}
Divide 6-ca by c.
