Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{a=\frac{bc}{d}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the value of a when we have the equation [tex]bc=ad[/tex], our goal is to isolate a on one side.
The key question here is: what's stopping a from being alone on one side? That would be it being multiplied by [tex]d[/tex]. If we were able to remove the d, we would have a by itself.
Since we are multiplying a and d, we can get rid of the d by dividing both sides by d.
We have to divide both sides of the equation by the same value in order to keep it equal.
[tex]bc \div d = ad \div d\\\\\frac{bc}{d}=a\\\\a = \frac{bc}{d}[/tex]
Hope this helped!
