Question

Isolate I for the literal equation V = IR

Answer 1

In order to isolate any term from an equation we need to clear out any different variable or numbers different from the one we want

$V=IR$

in this case I is being multiplied by R, so we need to do the opposite which is divide in order to eliminate

$V=\frac{IR}{R}$

But since this is an equality we must do it on both sides so de equation does not get altered

$\frac{V}{R}=\frac{IR}{R}$

Then we simplify the equation

$I=\frac{V}{R}$
