Question 1 • (OC27) MATH COLL ALGEBRA-1200710-S1-Degele-VOL7006P

Solve the equation A = bh for b.

Answer
A
b = Ah
B
b = A/h
C
b = h/A
D
b = h – A

Explanation

To solve A = bh for b, divide both sides by h so that b is by itself: A/h = bh/h. The h factors cancel on the right, giving b = A/h, which is choice B. This assumes h is not zero, since division by zero is undefined.
