2b-y+242b−y+24

Explanation:

Open the brackets and then add or subtract the like variables.

5(y-b)+3b-6y+4(6+b)5(y−b)+3b−6y+4(6+b)
5y-5b+3b-6y+24+4b5y−5b+3b−6y+24+4b
(5y-6y)+(3b+4b-5b)+24(5y−6y)+(3b+4b−5b)+24----->re-arranging the like variables
-y+2b+24−y+2b+24

re-arranging again:
2b-y+242b−y+24
