0.6a+0.35p=5.6
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
0.6a=5.6-0.35p
Subtract 0.35p from both sides.
0.6a=-\frac{7p}{20}+5.6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{0.6a}{0.6}=\frac{-\frac{7p}{20}+5.6}{0.6}
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.6, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
a=\frac{-\frac{7p}{20}+5.6}{0.6}
Dividing by 0.6 undoes the multiplication by 0.6.
a=-\frac{7p}{12}+\frac{28}{3}
Divide 5.6-\frac{7p}{20} by 0.6 by multiplying 5.6-\frac{7p}{20} by the reciprocal of 0.6.
0.6a+0.35p=5.6
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
0.35p=5.6-0.6a
Subtract 0.6a from both sides.
0.35p=\frac{28-3a}{5}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{0.35p}{0.35}=\frac{28-3a}{0.35\times 5}
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.35, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
p=\frac{28-3a}{0.35\times 5}
Dividing by 0.35 undoes the multiplication by 0.35.
p=-\frac{12a}{7}+16
Divide \frac{28-3a}{5} by 0.35 by multiplying \frac{28-3a}{5} by the reciprocal of 0.35.
