Question

5p+9c=p for c

Answer 1

Solving for a variable means to isolate it, in other words get it on it's own.

So to do this you want to move everything but the c to the right side, so remember this what you do to one side you much also do it to the other.

Start off by subtracting 5p from both sides, and once you have that divide by 9 see what you get.
