Question

Solve each equation or formula for the specified variable.

$I=prt$, for p.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The required solution is $\frac{I}{rt}=p$.

Step 1- Determine the approach that can be used

Division of the variables except p on both the sides will help to isolate the variable p.

Step 2- Isolate the variable p

Perform division of $rt$ on both the sides of the equation.

$\frac{I}{rt}=p$

Step 3- Make the conclusion

As the variable p is isolated so the value equivalent to it represents its value.
