Solve 2a+13b=3a

$$2 a + 13 b = 3 a$$

Solve for a

$$a=13b$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 3a from both sides.

$$2a+13b-3a=0$$

Combine 2a and -3a to get -a.

$$-a+13b=0$$

Subtract 13b from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-a=-13b$$

Divide both sides by -1.

$$\frac{-a}{-1}=-\frac{13b}{-1}$$

Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.

$$a=-\frac{13b}{-1}$$

Divide -13b by -1.

$$a=13b$$

Solve for b

$$b=\frac{a}{13}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 2a from both sides.

$$13b=3a-2a$$

Combine 3a and -2a to get a.

$$13b=a$$

Divide both sides by 13.

$$\frac{13b}{13}=\frac{a}{13}$$

Dividing by 13 undoes the multiplication by 13.

$$b=\frac{a}{13}$$
