I’ve got a question saying: make t the subject of the formula t=r/r-3

Any help? :smile:


But t is already the subject of the formula since it's by itself on the left side

I changed it thanks, I didn’t realise
1. Multiply (r-3)(t)=tr-3t=r
then bring r to the right hand side and take 3t to the other side
tr-r=3t
factorise the r
r(t-1)=3t
r= 3t/t-1

Multiply both sides by r - 3, isolate both r terms on one side, then factorise, and divide to make r the subject.
