Expert Answer:
Let's take an example:
if we want to find the dimensional formula of force, then taking
F = m a
Now putting dimensions of m and a in the above expression
[F] = [M] [LT-2] = [MLT-2]
Therefore to derive the dimensional formula of any physical quantity, take first the relation of that quantity and put the dimensions of the quantities comming in the expression.
