Question

8 times a number, p, decreased by q

Answer 1

(8*1p) - q is the solution

Answer 2

so the number is p and you're multiplying it by 8.

8p or 8 x p

then we must decrease this by q.

(8p) -q

you should put 8p in parentheses because when someone solves this, they will solve 8p first.

Answer 3

hope that helped =)
