If (b + 6) / 3 = (d + 4) / 2, then b/3 = ?

?

is it d/2?

Answer: b / 3 = d / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(b + 6) / 3 = (d + 4) / 2

(b / 3) + (6 / 3) = (d + 4) / 2

(b / 3) + 2 = (d + 4) / 2

Subtracting 2 from both sides,

(b / 3) + 2 - 2 = ((d + 4) / 2) - 2

or, b / 3 = ((d + 4) / 2) - 2

or, b / 3 = (d / 2) + (4 / 2) - 2

or, b / 3 = (d / 2) + 2 - 2

or, b / 3 = d / 2

So,

b/3 is equal to d/2.
