Bk=y+5-Lk
Multiply both sides of the equation by k.
y+5-Lk=Bk
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5-Lk=Bk-y
Subtract y from both sides.
-Lk=Bk-y-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
\left(-k\right)L=-y+Bk-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-k\right)L}{-k}=\frac{-y+Bk-5}{-k}
Divide both sides by -k.
L=\frac{-y+Bk-5}{-k}
Dividing by -k undoes the multiplication by -k.
L=-\frac{-y+Bk-5}{k}
Divide Bk-y-5 by -k.
