Answer:


\displaystyle X=(K)/(W+v)

Explanation:

Equation Solving

Equations are solved for a given variable by performing a sequence of operations that lead to the variable to be alone, usually on the left side of the equation.

We are given the equation:


\displaystyle (K)/(X)=W+v

It's required to solve it for X.

Note X is in the denominator of a fraction. To solve for X, we simply take the reciprocal on both sides of the equation:


\displaystyle (X)/(K)=(1)/(W+v)

Now multiply by K:


\boxed{\displaystyle X=(K)/(W+v)}
