Answer:

[text] x = p(m - n) [/tex]

Or

[text] x = pm - pn [/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

[text] m = n + \frac{x}{p} [/tex]

Required:

Make x the subject of the formula

Solution:

What we are required to do is to rewrite the equation so that x will be alone on one side while the other variables will be on the other side.

[text] m = n + \frac{x}{p} [/tex]

Subtract n from each side

[text] m - n = n + \frac{x}{p} - n [/tex]

[text] m - n = \frac{x}{p} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by p

[text] p(m - n) = \frac{x}{p}*p [/tex]

[text] p(m - n) = x [/tex]

[text] x = p(m - n) [/tex]

Or

[text] x = pm - pn [/tex]
