A=p+prt
Use the distributive property to multiply p by 1+rt.
p+prt=A
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(1+rt\right)p=A
Combine all terms containing p.
\left(rt+1\right)p=A
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(rt+1\right)p}{rt+1}=\frac{A}{rt+1}
Divide both sides by 1+rt.
p=\frac{A}{rt+1}
Dividing by 1+rt undoes the multiplication by 1+rt.
