You can put this solution on YOUR website!
k is a positive real number.

First sentence means, V=k%2Fp.

k can be solved symbolically; simply multiplying both sides of the equation by p%2F1. This gives k=Vp.

Second sentence allows you to evaluate k.
k=30%2F5
k=6
and that allows you to more specifically express your formula for V as
highlight%28V=6%2Fp%29.
