Question

$$MP-0.14MP=2150$$

Solve for M

$M=\frac{2500}{P}$
$P\neq 0$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $MP$ and $-0.14MP$ to get $0.86MP$.

$$0.86MP=2150$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$\frac{43P}{50}M=2150$$

Divide both sides by $0.86P$.

$$\frac{50\times \frac{43P}{50}M}{43P}=\frac{50\times 2150}{43P}$$

Dividing by $0.86P$ undoes the multiplication by $0.86P$.

$$M=\frac{50\times 2150}{43P}$$

Divide $2150$ by $0.86P$.

$$M=\frac{2500}{P}$$

Solve for P

$P=\frac{2500}{M}$
$M\neq 0$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $MP$ and $-0.14MP$ to get $0.86MP$.

$$0.86MP=2150$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$\frac{43M}{50}P=2150$$

Divide both sides by $0.86M$.

$$\frac{50\times \frac{43M}{50}P}{43M}=\frac{50\times 2150}{43M}$$

Dividing by $0.86M$ undoes the multiplication by $0.86M$.

$$P=\frac{50\times 2150}{43M}$$

Divide $2150$ by $0.86M$.

$$P=\frac{2500}{M}$$
