Question

Please help mee !!
solve for L P= 2L + 2W
L=
`(?)/(2)` - ( ? )

Answer 1

L =
`(P - 2W)/(2)`

isolate the term in L by subtracting 2W from both sides

P - 2W = 2L

divide both sides by 2

`(P - 2W)/(2)` = L

dividing each term on the numerator by 2 gives an alternative form

L =
`(P)/(2)` - W
