Question

MAKE NUMERICAL EXPRESSION 15 LESS THAN ONE- NINTH OF P

Answer 1

This one is a little tricky because we don't want to write the expression based on the way it's written in the sentence.

It would almost make more sense to read it like this,
`one-ninth of P`, `15 less than that`

Answer 2

So let's start with the `one-ninth of P`
Can you think of a way to write that?

Answer 3

1/9P

Answer 4

Yes good good :)\[\Large \frac{1}{9}P\]To deal with the other part, `15 less than that` means to `subtract` 15 from what we've established so far.
So how would you write that? :D

Answer 5

I REALLY LIKE HOW YOU ARE TEACHING ME HOW TO DO IT

Answer 6

1/9P=15

Answer 7

Hmm you wrote an `equals` sign, was that just a typo?

Answer 8

@angie44

Did you mean to write 1/9P-15 ?
That would have been correct.
