Given the formula:


\displaystyle \large{V= (1)/(3) Ah}

We want to isolate A-term. First, 1/3 • Ah can be written as:


\displaystyle \large{V= (Ah)/(3)}

Since we have 3 as the denominator, we multiply the whole equation by 3.


\displaystyle \large{V * 3= (Ah)/(3) * 3} \\ \displaystyle \large{3V= Ah}

Then we move h to divide 3V since h is multiplied by A.


\displaystyle \large{ (3V)/(h) = A}

Therefore, A = 3V/h
