Answer: c/bd = a

Explanation:

What we need to do is isolate a on one side of the equal side. Now, remember that multiplication and division cancel each other out, so if we divide b and d on the right side by b and d then we cancel those values and get a by itself. Now, we have to do this on the left side as well in order to keep the equation balanced. When we do this, we get c/bd = a. Keep working hard! You're doing great!
