p=\frac{16q}{9}
Dividing by 9 undoes the multiplication by 9.
9p=16q
Variable q cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by q.
16q=9p
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{16q}{16}=\frac{9p}{16}
Divide both sides by 16.
q=\frac{9p}{16}
Dividing by 16 undoes the multiplication by 16.
q=\frac{9p}{16}\text{, }q\neq 0
