Question

solve for K. I TRIED MANY TIMES TO GET IT RIGHT BUT I STILL GET STUCK WHEN I AM CLOSE TO FINDING THE ANSWER!!!!


m=1/k+n

Answer 1

Hello!

This is how you would solve for k.
m(k + n) = 1

k + n =$\frac{1}{m}$

k = $\frac{1}{m}$ - n

Answer 2

The denominator is k, according to user who posted the question.
$m=\frac{1}{k}+n$
We need to solve for k.

In order to solve for k, we need to isolate k, meaning
1. subtract n on both sides in order to isolate k, simplify
$m=\frac{1}{k}+n$
$m-n=\frac{1}{k}+n-n$
$m-n=\frac{1}{k}$
2. multiply k on both sides, do not forget the parentheses,
$k(m-n)=1$
3. divide by (m-n)   (do not forget the parentheses), simplify
$k(m-n)/(m-n)=\frac{1}{(m-n}$
$k=\frac{1}{(m-n)}$

So the final answer is
k=1/(m-n)     do not forget the parentheses.
