firs you need to look for the like terms (look at the a terms) then you will need to look for any other like terms in this case look at the b and the 8b it would probably be easier to add or subtract the smallest number. then if you answer turns out to be 2/3 your correct. HOPE IT HELPS SORRY IF YOU DONT GET IT.
