\text{ We know that }(5)/(A)\text{ = P}
\begin{gathered} \text{If we multiply by A on both sides we get. } \\ (5)/(A)\cdot A\text{ = P}\cdot A \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{ THen we cancell A and get that } \\ 5\text{ = P}\cdot A \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{Then divide by P on both sides of the equation } \\ (5)/(P)\text{ = }(P\cdot A)/(P) \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{And from that part, we cancell P and get } \\ (5)/(P)\text{ = A} \\ \text{Which is the final answer. } \end{gathered}
