R*a+R*b=a*b

Solution for R*a+R*b=a*b equation:

Simplifying
R * a + R * b = a * b

Multiply R * a
aR + R * b = a * b

Multiply R * b
aR + bR = a * b

Multiply a * b
aR + bR = ab

Solving
aR + bR = ab

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1ab' to each side of the equation.
aR + -1ab + bR = ab + -1ab

Combine like terms: ab + -1ab = 0
aR + -1ab + bR = 0

Add '-1bR' to each side of the equation.
aR + -1ab + bR + -1bR = 0 + -1bR

Combine like terms: bR + -1bR = 0
aR + -1ab + 0 = 0 + -1bR
aR + -1ab = 0 + -1bR
Remove the zero:
aR + -1ab = -1bR

Combine like terms: -1bR + bR = 0
aR + -1ab + bR = 0
