Question 859429: Hi, can you please tell me if my answer is correct?
Thank you so much for your help in advanced! (I apologise if I have chosen the wrong topic for this question!)
The questions states, "Transpose the formula F = 6.67 x 10^-11 m1m2/r2 to make m1 the subject." My answer is m1 = m2 (6.67 x 10^-11)/r2. Is this correct? Or should it be something like m1 = m2/r2 (6.67 x 10^-11)?

Let's call the constant G so that it simplifies the problem.
F=%28G%2Am%5B1%5D%2Am%5B2%5D%29%2FR%5E2
m%5B1%5D=%28F%2AR%5E2%29%2F%28G%2Am%5B2%5D%29
