You were given r - s = t; R

This literal equation makes no sense because it is asking you to solve for big R but there is no big R in the equation.

Unless a typo was made, I think you are trying to solve for the lower case letter r and NOT big R.

If you are trying to solve for r, then simply add s to both sides.

Final answer is r = s + t

We can also write the answer as r = t + s

This is called a literal equation because there are no numbers in the equation.
