Is b = 30 a solution to this equation?

Question

b
6
= 5
Yes or no

Answer 1

To determine if \( b = 30 \) is a solution to the equation

\[ \frac{b}{6} = 5, \]

we can substitute \( b \) with 30:

\[ \frac{30}{6} = 5. \]

Calculating the left side:

\[ \frac{30}{6} = 5. \]

Since both sides of the equation are equal, the statement is true.

So, yes, \( b = 30 \) is a solution to the equation.
