Multiply both sides of the equation by 8, the least common multiple of 4,8.
6y+2b+3y+4=88
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 3y+b.
9y+2b+4=88
Combine 6y and 3y to get 9y.
2b+4=88-9y
Subtract 9y from both sides.
2b=88-9y-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
2b=84-9y
Subtract 4 from 88 to get 84.
\frac{2b}{2}=\frac{84-9y}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
b=\frac{84-9y}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
b=-\frac{9y}{2}+42
