Substitution

This week in maths I have ben working on substitution. Substitution in maths means replacing a number with a letter. Kinda of like in rugby, number 9 comes off and is replaced by number 21.
Here is some of the practice work I have been doing

2. Substitute the values given in the following formulae to find the value of the unknown variable. Make sure that the correct units are given.

(a)
V = d/t
find the velocity v, when d = 80 km and t = 4 hours
(b)
A = l w
find the area A of a rectangle , when l = 20 cm and w = 5 cm
(c)
C = 2πr
find the circumference C, when π = 3 and r = 8 cm
(d)
V = 1/3Ah
find the volume V, when A = 21 cm2 and h = 6 cm
