solve for s, p= 3(s+100)/4
I tried distributing the 3 but im a lost in what to do next to get the s by itself. thank you so much!!

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
p= 3(s+100)/4
----
Multiply both sides by 4 to get:
4p = 3(s+100)
-----
Divide both sides by 3
s+100 = (4/3)p
---
Subtract 100 from both sides to get:
s = (4/3)p - 100
