You have the following formula for the estimation of fee F, in dollars:

F = 300nh

where n is the number of required musicians and h the hours.

In order to solve the previous formula for h, you proceed as follow:

F = 300nh divide both sides by 300 and simplify

F/300 = nh divide both sides by n and simplify

F/(300n) = h

Hence, the solution for h is h = F/(300n)

The correct option is B)
