Hi there! :)

Answer:

b=8

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

Explanation:

Lesson: Division property of equality

Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

First, you divide by 7 from both sides of an equation.


(7b)/(7)=(56)/(7)

Then, you simplify and solve. Divide by the numbers from left too right.


56/7=8

Final answer is b=8.

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)
