Solve B*1/2=B+2/3

$$B \times \frac { 1 } { 2 } = B + \frac { 2 } { 3 }$$

Solve for B

$$B = -\frac{4}{3} = -1\frac{1}{3} \approx -1.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract B from both sides.

$$B\times \frac{1}{2}-B=\frac{2}{3}$$

Combine B\times \frac{1}{2} and -B to get -\frac{1}{2}B.

$$-\frac{1}{2}B=\frac{2}{3}$$

Multiply both sides by -2, the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{2}.

$$B=\frac{2}{3}\left(-2\right)$$

Express \frac{2}{3}\left(-2\right) as a single fraction.

$$B=\frac{2\left(-2\right)}{3}$$

Multiply 2 and -2 to get -4.

$$B=\frac{-4}{3}$$

Fraction \frac{-4}{3} can be rewritten as -\frac{4}{3} by extracting the negative sign.

$$B=-\frac{4}{3}$$
