Take 431.2 and divide by 24.5

to find width, it would be very easy to have an expression defined by only w this can be done by either dividing both sides by 24.5 or subtracting 23.5w from both sides subtracting both sides by 23.5w will yield w = 431.2 -23.5w this doesn't really help so let's divide both sides by 24.5 24.5w/24.5 = 431.2/24.5 w = 17.6
