I=Prt solve for t
:
highlight%28t=I%2FPr%29divided both sides by P and r to isolate the variable t

I=Prt Start with the given equation


I%2FP=rt Divide both sides by "P"


%28I%2FP%29%2Fr=t Divide both sides by "r"


%28I%2FP%29%281%2Fr%29=t Multiply the first fraction I%2FP by the reciprocal of r%2F1


I%2F%28Pr%29=t Multiply the fractions.



======================================

Answer:

So the solution is t=I%2F%28Pr%29
