Answer:
b = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
11/6 b = b-5
Subtract b from each side
11/6 b - b = b-b-5
Get a common denominator on the right
11/6 b - 6/6 b = -5
5/6 b = -5
Multiply by 6/5 to isolate b
6/5 * 5/6 b = 6/5 *(-5)
Multiply 6 on both sides.
11b = 6b - 30
Subtract 6b on both sides.
5b = -30
Divide by 5 on both sides.
