If h(m+n) = m(h+r) find h in terms of m, n and r

Assessment: WAEC SSCE - General Mathematics - 1998 (Objective) Subject: General Mathematics

Question 1 Report

\(h=\frac{mr}{2m+n}\)

\(h=\frac{mr}{n+m}\)

\(h=\frac{m+n}{n}\)

\(h=\frac{m+n}{m}\)

\(h=\frac{mr}{n}\)

Answer Details

We are given the equation: h(m+n) = m(h+r). Expanding the left-hand side of the equation, we get: hm + hn = hm + mr Subtracting hm from both sides, we get: hn = mr Dividing both sides by n, we get: h = mr/n Therefore, the answer is: h = mr/n. Option D is the correct answer.
