Solve the formula $P=C+M C$ for $C$.
a. $C=\frac{P}{M}$
b. $C=\frac{P}{1+M}$
c. $C=P-M C$
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Rewrite the equation
Start with the given equation:
P=C+MC
Step 2: Factor out C
Factor C from the right-hand side of the equation:
P=C(1+M)
Step 3: Solve for C
Divide both sides of the equation by (1+M) to isolate C:
C=1+MP
