$M = \frac{K L}{T} - J$ $M=(KL)/T-J$

$1$ $1$ . Start by dividing T from both sides.

$T (J + M) = K L$ $T(J+M)=KL$

$\frac{T (J + M)}{T} = \frac{K L}{T}$ $(T(J+M))/color(red)(T)=(KL)/color(red)T$

$2$ $2$ . Simplify.

$J + M = \frac{K L}{T}$ $J+M=(KL)/T$

$3$ $3$ . Subtract J from both sides.

$J$ $J$ $- J + M = \frac{K L}{T}$ $color(red)(-J)+M=(KL)/T$ $- J$ $color(red)(-J)$

$4$ $4$ . Simplify.

$color(green)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)M=(KL)/T-Jcolor(white)(a/a)|)))$
