Solve for y x+a=yb

$x + a = y b$

Step 1

Rewrite the equation as $y b = x + a$ .

$y b = x + a$

Step 2

Divide each term in $y b = x + a$ by $b$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $y b = x + a$ by $b$ .

$\frac{y b}{b} = \frac{x}{b} + \frac{a}{b}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $b$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{y b}{b} = \frac{x}{b} + \frac{a}{b}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{x}{b} + \frac{a}{b}$
