1. **State the problem:** Solve the equation $$6 + \frac{4}{5}b = \frac{9}{10}b$$ for the variable $b$.
2. **Write down the formula and rules:** We want to isolate $b$ on one side. To do this, we will move all terms involving $b$ to one side and constants to the other.
3. **Subtract $\frac{4}{5}b$ from both sides:**
$$6 + \frac{4}{5}b - \frac{4}{5}b = \frac{9}{10}b - \frac{4}{5}b$$
which simplifies to
$$6 = \frac{9}{10}b - \frac{4}{5}b$$
4. **Find a common denominator to combine the $b$ terms:**
$$\frac{4}{5}b = \frac{8}{10}b$$
so
$$6 = \frac{9}{10}b - \frac{8}{10}b = \left(\frac{9}{10} - \frac{8}{10}\right)b = \frac{1}{10}b$$
5. **Solve for $b$ by dividing both sides by $\frac{1}{10}$:**
$$b = \frac{6}{\frac{1}{10}}$$
6. **Use the cancellation notation:**
$$b = 6 \times \cancel{\frac{1}{\frac{1}{10}}} = 6 \times 10 = 60$$
7. **Final answer:**
$$\boxed{60}$$
This means the value of $b$ that satisfies the equation is 60.
