Question

Make x the subject of the formula

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=p(m-n)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$m=n+\frac{x}{p}$

Put n to the other side by subtraction.

$m(-n)=n(-n)+\frac{x}{p}\\m-n=+\frac{x}{p}$

Use multiplication with 'p' to isolate x.

$(p)(m-n)=\frac{x}{p}(p)\\ p(m-n)=x$

x is now isolated.

$x=p(m-n)$

Answer 2

$m = n + \frac{x}{p} \\ pm = pn + x \\ x = pm - pn \\ or \\ x = p(m - n)$
