HELP SOLVING THE EQUATION: (-2 &1/7)p=-3

Answer 1

Is your eq like this
\[ -2 \frac{1}{7}p=-3\]

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

If yes then
\[-2 \frac{1}{7}p=-3 \rightarrow \(\frac{-2 \times 7+1}{7})p=-3\]
\[(\frac{-14+1}{7})p=-3 \rightarrow (\frac{-13}{7})p=-3 \rightarrow 13p=3 \times 7\]
\[ 13p=21 \rightarrow p = \frac{21}{13}\]

Answer 4

my answer choices have a whole number 1 or 6 so idk ?

\[p=\frac{21}{15}=\frac{7}{5}\]

Answer 9
