make x the subject of the following x/n + 2 = w

1 answer

To make \( x \) the subject of the equation \( \frac{x}{n} + 2 = w \), follow these steps:

  1. Start with the equation: \[ \frac{x}{n} + 2 = w \]

  2. Subtract 2 from both sides: \[ \frac{x}{n} = w - 2 \]

  3. Multiply both sides by \( n \) to isolate \( x \): \[ x = n(w - 2) \]

So, the solution is: \[ x = n(w - 2) \]
