12\left(R+1\right)=R\times 125
Variable R cannot be equal to -1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by R+1.
12R+12=R\times 125
Use the distributive property to multiply 12 by R+1.
12R+12-R\times 125=0
Subtract R\times 125 from both sides.
-113R+12=0
Combine 12R and -R\times 125 to get -113R.
-113R=-12
Subtract 12 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
R=\frac{-12}{-113}
Divide both sides by -113.
R=\frac{12}{113}
Fraction \frac{-12}{-113} can be simplified to \frac{12}{113} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
