Solve s1/p1 = s^2/p^2

Evaluate

s \times \frac{1}{p} \times 1 = \frac{s ^{2}}{p ^{2}}

Multiply the terms

More Steps

\frac{s}{p} = \frac{s ^{2}}{p ^{2}}

Cross multiply

s p^{2} = p s^{2}

Simplify the equation

s p^{2} = s^{2} p

Rewrite the expression

s p^{2} = s \times s p

Evaluate

p^{2} = s p

Move the expression to the left side

p^{2} - s p = 0

Factor the expression

More Steps

p (p - s) = 0

When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0

p = 0 p - s = 0

Solution

More Steps

p = 0 p = s
