Solve for p n=(p-k)/j

$n = \frac{p - k}{j}$

Step 1

Rewrite the equation as $\frac{p - k}{j} = n$ .

$\frac{p - k}{j} = n$

Step 2

Multiply both sides by $j$ .

$\frac{p - k}{j} j = n j$

Step 3

Simplify the left side.

Simplify $\frac{p - k}{j} j$ .

Cancel the common factor of $j$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{p - k}{j} j = n j$

Rewrite the expression.

$p - k = n j$

$p - k = n j$

Reorder $p$ and $- k$ .

$- k + p = n j$

$- k + p = n j$

$- k + p = n j$

Step 4

Add $k$ to both sides of the equation.

$p = n j + k$
