\frac{1}{2}p+\frac{1}{4}r=s-\frac{1}{3}q
Subtract \frac{1}{3}q from both sides.
\frac{1}{2}p=s-\frac{1}{3}q-\frac{1}{4}r
Subtract \frac{1}{4}r from both sides.
\frac{1}{2}p=-\frac{q}{3}-\frac{r}{4}+s
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{1}{2}p}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{-\frac{q}{3}-\frac{r}{4}+s}{\frac{1}{2}}
Multiply both sides by 2.
p=\frac{-\frac{q}{3}-\frac{r}{4}+s}{\frac{1}{2}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{2} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{2}.
p=-\frac{r}{2}-\frac{2q}{3}+2s
Divide s-\frac{q}{3}-\frac{r}{4} by \frac{1}{2} by multiplying s-\frac{q}{3}-\frac{r}{4} by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{2}.
\frac{1}{3}q+\frac{1}{4}r=s-\frac{1}{2}p
Subtract \frac{1}{2}p from both sides.
\frac{1}{3}q=s-\frac{1}{2}p-\frac{1}{4}r
Subtract \frac{1}{4}r from both sides.
\frac{1}{3}q=-\frac{p}{2}-\frac{r}{4}+s
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{1}{3}q}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{-\frac{p}{2}-\frac{r}{4}+s}{\frac{1}{3}}
Multiply both sides by 3.
q=\frac{-\frac{p}{2}-\frac{r}{4}+s}{\frac{1}{3}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{3} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{3}.
q=-\frac{3p}{2}-\frac{3r}{4}+3s
Divide s-\frac{p}{2}-\frac{r}{4} by \frac{1}{3} by multiplying s-\frac{p}{2}-\frac{r}{4} by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{3}.
