You can put this solution on YOUR website! SOLVE FOR S
R=C-S / T
I'm going to assume that you meant R= (C-S) / T since it looks that way based on how you typed the equation.
To solve for S, you'll want to make it so that S is the only thing on one side of the equation. Logically, this means you'll want to get rid of everything else that is on the same side of the equation as S.
For example, we can get rid of the T on the right side of the equation by multiplying both sides by T.
R * T = ((C-S)/T) * T
RT = C-S
Now we'll need to get rid of the C on the right side of the equation. We can do so by subtracting C from both sides.
RT - C = C-S-C
RT - C = S
Notice how the C-C cancels out and you're just left with S.
