p+b*a=c+e*a

Solution for p+b*a=c+e*a equation:

Simplifying
p + b * a = c + e * a

Multiply b * a
p + ab = c + e * a

Reorder the terms:
ab + p = c + e * a

Multiply e * a
ab + p = c + ae

Reorder the terms:
ab + p = ae + c

Solving
ab + p = ae + c

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1ae' to each side of the equation.
ab + -1ae + p = ae + -1ae + c

Combine like terms: ae + -1ae = 0
ab + -1ae + p = 0 + c
ab + -1ae + p = c

Add '-1p' to each side of the equation.
ab + -1ae + p + -1p = c + -1p

Combine like terms: p + -1p = 0
ab + -1ae + 0 = c + -1p
ab + -1ae = c + -1p

Reorder the terms:
ab + -1ae + -1c + p = c + -1c + -1p + p

Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0
ab + -1ae + -1c + p = 0 + -1p + p
ab + -1ae + -1c + p = -1p + p

Combine like terms: -1p + p = 0
ab + -1ae + -1c + p = 0
