5u-b+u=180
Combine 2u and 3u to get 5u.
6u-b=180
Combine 5u and u to get 6u.
-b=180-6u
Subtract 6u from both sides.
\frac{-b}{-1}=\frac{180-6u}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
b=\frac{180-6u}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
b=6u-180
Divide 180-6u by -1.
5u-b+u=180
Combine 2u and 3u to get 5u.
6u-b=180
Combine 5u and u to get 6u.
6u=180+b
Add b to both sides.
6u=b+180
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{6u}{6}=\frac{b+180}{6}
Divide both sides by 6.
u=\frac{b+180}{6}
Dividing by 6 undoes the multiplication by 6.
u=\frac{b}{6}+30
Divide 180+b by 6.
