Solve for R P=I^2R

$P = I^{2} R$

Step 1

Rewrite the equation as $I^{2} R = P$ .

$I^{2} R = P$

Step 2

Divide each term in $I^{2} R = P$ by $I^{2}$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $I^{2} R = P$ by $I^{2}$ .

$\frac{I^{2} R}{I^{2}} = \frac{P}{I^{2}}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $I^{2}$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{I^{2} R}{I^{2}} = \frac{P}{I^{2}}$

Divide $R$ by $1$ .

$R = \frac{P}{I^{2}}$
