A

`l=7/(nh)`

B

`l=h/(7n)`

C

`l=n/(7h)`

D

`l=n/(7+h)`

The correct Answer is:
To express \( l \) in terms of \( n \) and \( h \) from the formula \( n = 7lh \), we can follow these steps: 1. **Start with the original formula**: \[ n = 7lh \] 2. **Divide both sides by 7**: \[ \frac{n}{7} = lh \] 3. **Now, divide both sides by \( h \)** (assuming \( h \neq 0 \)): \[ \frac{n}{7h} = l \] 4. **Rearranging gives us**: \[ l = \frac{n}{7h} \] Thus, the expression for \( l \) in terms of \( n \) and \( h \) is: \[ l = \frac{n}{7h} \]
