A=\pi Rr+2\pi Rh
Use the distributive property to multiply \pi R by r+2h.
\pi Rr+2\pi Rh=A
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(\pi r+2\pi h\right)R=A
Combine all terms containing R.
\frac{\left(\pi r+2\pi h\right)R}{\pi r+2\pi h}=\frac{A}{\pi r+2\pi h}
Divide both sides by \pi r+2\pi h.
R=\frac{A}{\pi r+2\pi h}
Dividing by \pi r+2\pi h undoes the multiplication by \pi r+2\pi h.
R=\frac{A}{\pi \left(r+2h\right)}
Divide A by \pi r+2\pi h.
