i=VR+r
Step 1
Rewrite the equation as VR+r=i.
VR+r=i
Step 2
Step 2.1
Finding the LCD of a list of values is the same as finding the LCM of the denominators of those values.
R+r,1
Step 2.2
Remove parentheses.
R+r,1
Step 2.3
The LCM of one and any expression is the expression.
R+r
R+r
Step 3
Step 3.1
Multiply each term in VR+r=i by R+r.
VR+r(R+r)=i(R+r)
Step 3.2
Simplify the left side.
Step 3.2.1
Cancel the common factor of R+r.
Step 3.2.1.1
Cancel the common factor.
