ax=cb
Multiply both sides of the equation by b.
xa=bc
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xa}{x}=\frac{bc}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
a=\frac{bc}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
ax=cb
Multiply both sides of the equation by b.
xa=bc
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xa}{x}=\frac{bc}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
a=\frac{bc}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
ax=cb
Variable b cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by b.
cb=ax
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{cb}{c}=\frac{ax}{c}
Divide both sides by c.
b=\frac{ax}{c}
Dividing by c undoes the multiplication by c.
b=\frac{ax}{c}\text{, }b\neq 0
Variable b cannot be equal to 0.
