Answer 2

\[\frac{2}{3}p+6=\frac{7}{6}p\]?

multiply both sides by 6 and start with
\[4p+36=7p\] now it takes only two steps

Answer 5

Answer 7

Now you just need to combine like terms.

Answer 8

Bring the 4p over to the 7p by subtracting both sides by 4p.

Answer 9

so is it 3p?

Answer 10

Yes on the right side it's 3p. Now the equation looks like this:\[36=3p\]

Answer 11

Do you know what to do then?

Answer 12

are you supposed to fing the p?

Answer 13

Yes lol that was what we were doing in the first place. :)

Answer 14

Divide both sides by 3 so you can get p by itself.

Answer 15

so divide 3p by 3?

Answer 16

Yes.

Answer 17

is that 1

Answer 18

Well it would equal 1p since the p was never cancelled out when you divided by 3. Now divide 36 by 3.

Answer 19

Yes that is right! Now you have:\[12=p\]
