A very simple question concerning the algebra of physics

[help1please]

Suppose I had an expression, for the sake of this post

\frac{Ec^2}{mv}

we know that c^2 = \frac{E}{m} so can the above expression be substituted as

c^2 \frac{c^2}{v}

Yes, yes, I know this result is very uninteresting, I was just making a quick example. Thank you!

I ask this because some work I am following states that if two particles are really close separated at a distance R then the momentum is large proportional to

\frac{\hbar}{R}

Then it says that using a substitution then in E=pc

E= \frac{\hbar c}{R}

so in this sense, if you can do it that way, you can also do it my way, the reversed way in the OP, right?

So far so good. Is that the whole question? You can always substitute equal for equals.

Thank you, that is all I wanted to know! :)
