Question

Solve P=2D+2C for D

Answer 1

Answer: D = (P - 2C)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve P= 2D + 2C for D

This means "isolate D in one side of the equation"

The first step is subtracting 2C in the both sides of the equation:

P - 2C = 2D + 2C - 2C = 2D

P - 2C = 2D

Now, we want to take of the multiplication that is acting on D, so we divide in both sides by 2:

(P - 2C)/2 = (2D)/2 = D

Now we have D isolated, and this is:

D = (P - 2C)/2

Answer 2

P-2c/2 = D   So, P-2c all over 2 is equal to D.
