When rearranging a formula, does it matter which side the variable you're isolating for is on? The question I'm stuck on is:

F=mx where your isolating x

It makes no difference which side it's on when you're done,

as long as it's all by itself over there.

x = F/m or F/m = x

are both exactly the same statement. Either one is an acceptable form

for the answer to the question.

F=mx

x=F/m (i divided by m to both sides) or F/m=x it doesn't matter both are correct
