Hi.

Example. I have this formula:

V = S/t

V - speed

S - distance

t - time

 

I don't know values, but i want to find formula for find S.

How can i do it with mathcad?

Can mathcad give me result like this:

S -> V*t

Mathcad has a lot of different equal signs!

In this case, for entering an equation, you'll have to use the boolean equal sign.

You can get it from the menu ribbon (Math - Operators - Comparison - Equal To) or using a keyboard short (on my keyboard its "Ctrl +", on yours it may be "Ctrl =").

The boolean equal sign looks bolder than the one you use for evaluation (=) or the one used for assignments (:=).
