Answer:

7

Explanation:

The value of b is 7.

6b+6=48

Carry over the 6 and make b the subject.

6b= 48-6

6b= 42

b= 42/6

b= 7

Therefore b=7

To find out if the answer is correct, replace the b with the value of what it is in brackets. Remember brackets mean to multiply.

6(7)+6= 48

42+6= 48

Therefore b=7 and the answer is correct.
