Question 1054879: b=1/7mxh, solve for h.

Whar I've tried:
b=1/7mxh
multiply the denominator on both sides of the equation
7b=mxh
at this point, I don't know what to do. My guess is to divide the h by itself to bring it to the other side?
7b/h=mx
If correct at this point, would I do 7b multiplied by mx to get 7b to get h by itself?
so my guess would be h=(7b)mx

Maybe you are starting with this: .
GOAL is solve for h.

Combine the multiplicative inverses into one single expression and use it.

After cross-multiplying, we get: 7b = mxh (You're CORRECT up to this point)

 ---- Dividing each side by mx in order to ISOLATE h
