Question

Solve for c.

a(b-c)=d

Answer 1

Explanation:

Its the third choice c = (ab - d) / a

Divide both sides by a:-

b - c = d/a

b - d/a = c

c = (ab - d ) / a

Answer 2

`c=(ab - d )/(a)`

Explanation:

Given equation,

a ( b - c ) = d ----(1)

For finding the formula for c by this equation,

We need to isolate c in the left side of the equation,

By applying distributive property in equation (1),

ab - ac = d

Subtracting ab on both sides,

-ac = d - ab

Divide both sides by -a

`c=(ab - d )/(a)`

Which is the equation for c.

THIRD option is correct.
