p\times 2r=q\left(r+2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2r.
p\times 2r=qr+2q
Use the distributive property to multiply q by r+2.
qr+2q=p\times 2r
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(r+2\right)q=p\times 2r
Combine all terms containing q.
\left(r+2\right)q=2pr
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(r+2\right)q}{r+2}=\frac{2pr}{r+2}
Divide both sides by r+2.
q=\frac{2pr}{r+2}
Dividing by r+2 undoes the multiplication by r+2.
