9 =

b − 22/8

3 answers

9 = b - 22/8

To solve for b, first multiply 22/8 to simplify the equation:

9 = b - 2.75

Now, add 2.75 to both sides to solve for b:

b = 9 + 2.75
b = 11.75

Therefore, the value of b is 11.75.
no
I apologize for the mistake. Let's try solving it again:

9 = b - 22/8

To solve for b, first add 22/8 to both sides:

b = 9 + 22/8

Now, simplify the right side:

b = 9 + 2.75
b = 11.75

Therefore, the correct value of b is 11.75.
