2a=3b
Add 3b to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\frac{2a}{2}=\frac{3b}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
a=\frac{3b}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
-3b=-2a
Subtract 2a from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-3b}{-3}=-\frac{2a}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
b=-\frac{2a}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
b=\frac{2a}{3}
Divide -2a by -3.
