bx=x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
xb=x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xb}{x}=\frac{x}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
b=\frac{x}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
b=1
Divide x by x.
x-bx=0
Subtract bx from both sides.
\left(1-b\right)x=0
Combine all terms containing x.
x=0
Divide 0 by 1-b.
