2a_{3}b=20\times 4
Multiply both sides by 4.
2a_{3}b=80
Multiply 20 and 4 to get 80.
2ba_{3}=80
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2ba_{3}}{2b}=\frac{80}{2b}
Divide both sides by 2b.
a_{3}=\frac{80}{2b}
Dividing by 2b undoes the multiplication by 2b.
a_{3}=\frac{40}{b}
Divide 80 by 2b.
2a_{3}b=20\times 4
Multiply both sides by 4.
2a_{3}b=80
Multiply 20 and 4 to get 80.
\frac{2a_{3}b}{2a_{3}}=\frac{80}{2a_{3}}
Divide both sides by 2a_{3}.
b=\frac{80}{2a_{3}}
Dividing by 2a_{3} undoes the multiplication by 2a_{3}.
b=\frac{40}{a_{3}}
Divide 80 by 2a_{3}.
