Question 334317: how do you find the answer for a variable for expansion allowance in highway construction?
I have tried to solve the following question: L = KL(T-t) for T
by dividing every thing by KL (-t) to get T alone and my answer was 1/KL(-t) = T is this correct or am I doing this wrong and need to do it another way if so how do I solve for T?

dividing by KL gives ___ 1/K = T - t

adding t gives ___ (1/K) + t = T
