Your goal is to get b alone on one side of the equals and get "not b" on the other. In this case, b and h are put together by multiplying. So we do the opposite operation - dividing, to get b and h separated.

A = b * h Put the multiplication operation in the original

A / h = (b * h ) / h Divide by h on both sides

A / h = b The h on the right side simplifies to 1


Thus b =
(A)/(h)
