Answer:


b = (4y)/(5l + 5s)

Explanation:


(4y)/(5b) = l + s

multiplying through by the L.C.M. which is 5b


(4y)/(5b) * 5b = (l + s) * 5b

cancel out

4y =5bL+ 5bs

factorizing b out

4y=b ( 5L +5s ).

making be the subject by dividing through by ( 5L+ 5s )


(4y)/(5l + 5s) = (b(5l + 5s))/(5l + 5s)


b = (4y)/(5l + 5s)
