$z=(2a)/(xy)$

This is an example of literal equation

from the given $a=1/2xyz$

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

$2*a=2*1/2xyz$

$2*a=cancel2*1/cancel2xyz$

$2*a=xyz$

Divide both sides of the equation by $(xy)$

$(2*a)/(xy)=(xyz)/(xy)$

$(2*a)/(xy)=(cancel(xy)z)/(cancel(xy))$

$(2*a)/(xy)=z$

$z=(2*a)/(xy)$

God bless...I hope the explanation is useful.
