You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"Volume+=+length%2Awidth%2Aheight\"
\n" ); document.write( "Pretend for a moment that you know the volume of a rectangle is 28cm^3 and you know that the height is 4 and the length is 3.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The formula would read: \"3%2Awidth%2A4+=+28\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You then want to multiply 3 and 4 together (using the multiplicative property) to give you 12 so now it looks like:
\n" ); document.write( "\"12%2Awidth+=+28\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To get the width you now have to divide both sides by the coefficient 12:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2812%2Awidth%29%2F12+=+28%2F12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 12 cancels out on the left side, and you're left with:
\n" ); document.write( "\"width+=+28%2F12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Which equals 2.333\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Width = 2.333
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
