Solve 3ab=3(1)x(2)=

$$3 a b = 3 ( 1 ) x ( 2 ) =$$

Solve for a (complex solution)

$$\left\{\begin{matrix}a=\frac{2x}{b}\text{, }&b\neq 0\\a\in \mathrm{C}\text{, }&x=0\text{ and }b=0\end{matrix}\right.$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Cancel out 3 on both sides.

$$ab=1x\times 2$$

Multiply 1 and 2 to get 2.

$$ab=2x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$ba=2x$$

Divide both sides by b.

$$\frac{ba}{b}=\frac{2x}{b}$$

Dividing by b undoes the multiplication by b.

$$a=\frac{2x}{b}$$

Solve for b (complex solution)

$$\left\{\begin{matrix}b=\frac{2x}{a}\text{, }&a\neq 0\\b\in \mathrm{C}\text{, }&x=0\text{ and }a=0\end{matrix}\right.$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Cancel out 3 on both sides.

$$ab=1x\times 2$$

Multiply 1 and 2 to get 2.

$$ab=2x$$

Divide both sides by a.

$$\frac{ab}{a}=\frac{2x}{a}$$

Dividing by a undoes the multiplication by a.

$$b=\frac{2x}{a}$$

Solve for a

$$\left\{\begin{matrix}a=\frac{2x}{b}\text{, }&b\neq 0\\a\in \mathrm{R}\text{, }&x=0\text{ and }b=0\end{matrix}\right.$$
