47/8 is an improper fraction so we need to divide 47 by 8 to get an mixed number.
8 go into 47, 5 times because 5*8 equals 40.
47-40 is 7 that is the left over.
5 7/8 is your mixed number.

$\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{-40-8b=-6(1+7b)}\\\mathsf{SIMPLIFY\ both\ sides\ of\ your\ equation}\\\mathsf{-40-8b=-6(1+7b)}$

$\mathsf{Distribute\ the\ RIGHT\ side\ of\ the\ equation }\\\mathsf{Distribute [the\ formula\ is: a(b+c)=a(b)+a(c)=ab+ac]}\\\mathsf{-6(1)+(-6)}(7b)\\\mathsf{-6(1)=-6}\\\mathsf{-6(7b)=-42b}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow\ =-6+(-42b)}$

$\mathsf{-40-8b=-6+(-42b)}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow -8b-40=-42b-6}$

$\mathsf{ADD\ by\ 42b\ on\ your\ sides}\\\mathsf{-8b-40+42b=-42b-6+42b}\\\mathsf{SOLVE\ above\ correct\ to\ get\ us\ to\ the\ next\ step!}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow 34b-40=-6}$

$\mathsf{ADD\ by\ 40\ on\ your\ sides}\\\mathsf{34b-40+40=-6+40}\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out\ -40+40\ because\ that\ gives\ the\ result\ of\ 0}\\\mathsf{-6+40=34}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow New\ equation: 34b = 34}$

$\mathsf{DIVIDE\ both\ of\ your\ sides\ by\ 34}\\\mathsf{\dfrac{34b}{34}=\dfrac{34}{34}}\\\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out: \dfrac{34b}{34}\ because\ that\ gives\ you\ the\ result\ of\ 1b}\\\\\mathsf{Keep:\dfrac{34}{34}\ because\ it\ solves\ for\ b}\\\\\mathsf{\dfrac{34}{34}=34\div34=1}$
