R+r=AR
Multiply both sides of the equation by R.
AR=R+r
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
RA=r+R
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{RA}{R}=\frac{r+R}{R}
Divide both sides by R.
A=\frac{r+R}{R}
Dividing by R undoes the multiplication by R.
R+r=AR
Variable R cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by R.
R+r-AR=0
Subtract AR from both sides.
R-AR=-r
Subtract r from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(1-A\right)R=-r
Combine all terms containing R.
\frac{\left(1-A\right)R}{1-A}=-\frac{r}{1-A}
Divide both sides by 1-A.
R=-\frac{r}{1-A}
Dividing by 1-A undoes the multiplication by 1-A.
R=-\frac{r}{1-A}\text{, }R\neq 0
Variable R cannot be equal to 0.
