How do you solve literal eqations

Answer: When given a literal equation, you will often be asked to solve the equation for a

given variable. The goal is to isolate that given variable. The process is the same

process that you use to solve linear equations; the only difference is that you will

be working with a lot more letters, and you may not be able to simplify as much as

you can with linear equations. This packet will hopefully show you the process in a

simple manner so that you will be able to solve literal equations yourself.
