Question
Give the step you will use to separate the variable and then solve the equation: $\frac{20 p}{3}= 40$
✓
Answer
The given equation is
$\frac{20 p}{3} = 40$
Multiply both sides by $3,$
$ \frac{20 p}{3} \times 3 = 40 \times 3$
$ \therefore 20p = 120$
Divide both sides by $20,$
$ \frac{20 p}{20}=\frac{120}{20} $
$ \therefore p = 6$
It is the required solution
$\frac{20 p}{3} = 40$
Multiply both sides by $3,$
$ \frac{20 p}{3} \times 3 = 40 \times 3$
$ \therefore 20p = 120$
Divide both sides by $20,$
$ \frac{20 p}{20}=\frac{120}{20} $
$ \therefore p = 6$
It is the required solution
