Solving for 'a'

c+=+a-b

c%2Bb+=+a-b%2Bb Add b to both sides.

c%2Bb+=+a%2B0

c%2Bb+=+a

a+=+c%2Bb

-------------------------------------------------------

Solving for b

c+=+a-b

c%2Bb+=+a-b%2Bb Add b to both sides.

c%2Bb+=+a%2B0

c%2Bb+=+a

b%2Bc+=+a

b%2Bc-c+=+a-c Subtract c from both sides.

b%2B0+=+a-c

b+=+a-c
