3\left(3b-2\right)=b-3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 4,12.
9b-6=b-3
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 3b-2.
9b-6-b=-3
Subtract b from both sides.
8b-6=-3
Combine 9b and -b to get 8b.
8b=-3+6
Add 6 to both sides.
8b=3
Add -3 and 6 to get 3.
b=\frac{3}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
