Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2, and divide both sides by h to cancel that out.
So (2A)/h = b

A = 1/2bh
So you need to multiply both sides by 2/1, the reciprocal of 1/2. You get:
2A = bh
Then, divide both sides by h, leaving you with your answer:
2A/h = b
b = 2A/h
Good luck! =]

A = 1/2bh multiply both sides by 2
2A=bh divide both sides by h
b=2A/h

to solve for b,multiple each side by 2/h,thus not changing the equation and b is solved.

;b this means you need to get b by itself. all you have to do is divide watch
a=1/2bh
a/h=1/2b
a/h/1/2=b
a divided by h, divided by 1/2 equals b
hope this helps

area = 1/2 base x height?
divide both sides by h.
a/h=1/2b
then, multiply both sides by 2.
2a/h=1b (or just b)
so b= 2a/h

A = 1/2bh:b (cancelling "b" bt "b")
A = 1/2h or 0,5h

A = bh/2
2A = bh
b = 2a/h
