Solve for r a=p(1+nr)

Problem

a=p*(1+n*r)

Solution

1. Distribute the variable p to the terms inside the parentheses on the right side of the equation.

a=p+p*n*r

2. Isolate the term containing r by subtracting p from both sides of the equation.

a−p=p*n*r

3. Divide both sides by the product p*n to solve for r

(a−p)/(p*n)=r

4. Rewrite the equation to place the variable r on the left side.

r=(a−p)/(p*n)

Final Answer

r=(a−p)/(p*n)
