\lambda Mb=L+Mb^{2}
Variable M cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by Mb.
\lambda Mb-Mb^{2}=L
Subtract Mb^{2} from both sides.
-Mb^{2}+Mb\lambda =L
Reorder the terms.
\left(-b^{2}+b\lambda \right)M=L
Combine all terms containing M.
\left(b\lambda -b^{2}\right)M=L
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(b\lambda -b^{2}\right)M}{b\lambda -b^{2}}=\frac{L}{b\lambda -b^{2}}
Divide both sides by \lambda b-b^{2}.
M=\frac{L}{b\lambda -b^{2}}
Dividing by \lambda b-b^{2} undoes the multiplication by \lambda b-b^{2}.
M=\frac{L}{b\left(\lambda -b\right)}
Divide L by \lambda b-b^{2}.
M=\frac{L}{b\left(\lambda -b\right)}\text{, }M\neq 0
Variable M cannot be equal to 0.
