Question 352208
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


You can't.  Not without introducing another quantity or variable to which your expression can be set equal.  The point is that you cannot, under any circumstances, have an equation unless you have one mathematical expression on one side of an equals sign and another mathematical expression on the other side.  Just having some mathematical symbols (absent an equals sign) arranged on your paper, in and of themselves do NOT constitute an equation.


Now, with what you gave, you can write an expression using mathematical symbology to communicate what you wrote in plain language, thus:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{63}{h}\ -\ 14]


But that is not an equation.  You could define a function, *[tex \Large f], with an independent variable *[tex \Large h], thus:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ f(h)\ =\ \frac{63}{h}\ -\ 14]


And that IS an equation, but that isn't what you asked in your posting.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
