Answer:

2a+b=5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

given the expression

24a + 12b - 30

Step one :

To solve this we need to look for a common factor

Here 6 is a common factor

So divide all through by 6

24a/6+12b/6-30/6

4a+2b-5

4a+2b=5

Step two :

We can still factor 2 out for the terms with variables

2(2a+b)=5

2a+b=5/2
