Question

Use the formula M = NPQ to solve for the following variables.

a. Solve for N.

b. Solve for Q.

Answer 1

Explanation:

M=NPQ

m/pq=Npq/pq

pq is going to cancel, you left with N

N= m/pq

To solve for q, we have to make q the subject.

m = Npq

divide both sides of the equation by NP

M/NP= q

that's the answer

Answer 2

N = M/(PQ)

Q = M/(NP)

Explanation:

Given that

M = NPQ

• then if we divide by PQ at both sides of the equation

M/(PQ) = NPQ/(PQ)

M/(PQ) = N

• On the other hand, if we divide by NP at both sides of the equation

M/(NP) = NPQ/(NP)

M/(NP) = Q
