Need help solving for f - please show me how?
Ok so I know the equation should look like this:
(1-f)(34.97) + f (36.97) = 35.45
where f = the fraction of the smaller isotope, but I'm having a little bit of algebraic difficulty! How do I solve for f here? The answer is f = .24
My I know how to do the rest but the main question is how do I solve for f (algebraically)

Expanding it all out:
34.97 - 34.97f + 36.97f = 35.45
2f = 0.48
Hence f = 0.24
