Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−2 = 3 + b / 4

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2 = 3 + b / 4

−2 = 3 + 1 / 4b

−2 = 1 / 4b + 3

Step 2: Flip the equation.

1 / 4b + 3 = −2

Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.

1 / 4b + 3 − 3 = −2 − 3

1 / 4b = −5

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 4.

4 * ( 1 / 4b ) = ( 4 ) * ( −5 )

b = −20

b = −20
