When we solve for a variable, we're basically isolating it on one side (and placing all the other terms on the other side)


S=2B%2BPh Start with the given equation.


S-2B=Ph Subtract 2B from both sides.


%28S-2B%29%2Fh=P Divide both sides by h to isolate P.


P=%28S-2B%29%2Fh Rearrange the equation.


So the solution is P=%28S-2B%29%2Fh
