Question

How do you solve `-44b = 11`?

Answer 1

`b=-1/4`

Explanation:

We want to isolate (solve for) `b`, so we can divide both sides by `-44`. We get:

`b=-11/44`, which can be simplified as:

`b=-1/4` (as a result of dividing the numerator/denominator by `11`)

Answer 2

in order to solve this we take the numbers on one side and the alphabets on the other side

Explanation:

so for `-44b=11` we will take the `-44` on the side of `11` .

And we also know that `-44` is multiplying with `b` so if we take it on the other side of equality it will divide with that number.

so `-44b=11` will be

`b=-44/11`

and we know that `11` is `4` times equal to `44` so the valuw of `b` will be `-4`

`b=-4`
