\\ \sf\longmapsto D=Ga+3h^3a

  • Take out a common


\\ \sf\longmapsto a(G+3h^3)=D


\\ \sf\longmapsto a(3h^3)=(D)/(G)


\\ \sf\longmapsto a^3=(D)/(3Gh)


\\ \sf\longmapsto a=\sqrt{(D)/(3Gh)}

\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}

  • D = Ga + 3h³a
  • a = ?


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}


\sf \: D = Ga+3 { h }^( 3 ) a

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left-hand side.


\sf \: Ga+3h^(3)a=D

Combine all terms containing a.


\sf\left(G+3h^(3)\right)a=D

Divide both sides by
\sf\:G+3h^(3).


\sf(\left(G+3h^(3)\right)a)/(G+3h^(3))=(D)/(G+3h^(3)) \\

Dividing by
\sf\:G+3h^(3) undoes the multiplication by
\sf\:G+3h^(3).


\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: a=(D)/(G+3h^(3)) }} \\
