269\times 12\times 1=12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Variable R_{0} cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 12R_{0}, the least common multiple of R_{0},12.
3228\times 1=12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Multiply 269 and 12 to get 3228.
3228=12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Multiply 3228 and 1 to get 3228.
3228=R_{0}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Cancel out 12 and 12.
3228=R_{0}+R_{0}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Cancel out 12 and 12.
3228=2R_{0}+12R_{0}\times \frac{1}{12}
Combine R_{0} and R_{0} to get 2R_{0}.
3228=2R_{0}+R_{0}
Cancel out 12 and 12.
3228=3R_{0}
Combine 2R_{0} and R_{0} to get 3R_{0}.
3R_{0}=3228
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
R_{0}=\frac{3228}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
R_{0}=1076
Divide 3228 by 3 to get 1076.
