P=%28QV%29%2F%28HE%29+
Since Q is in the numerator
Step 1 would be eliminating the denominator, multiply both sides with HE
%28HE%29P=%28%28QV%29%2F%28HE%29%29%28HE%29%29 HE on the left side of the equal sign will be cancelled then
PHE=%28QV%29 --> so that Q will be left, we must eliminate V by dividing both sides by V

%28PHE%29%2FV=%28QV%29%2FV V on the left side of the equation will be cancelled

The Result will be
%28PHE%29%2FV=Q
