Question
Solve: $2p – 1 = 23$
✓
Answer
Given: $2p – 1 = 23$
or, $2p – 1 + 1 = 23 + 1$ [Adding $1$ on both sides]
or $2p = 24$
Now divide both sides by $2$, we get,
$\frac{2 p}{2}=\frac{24}{2}$
or $p = 12$, which is the solution.
or, $2p – 1 + 1 = 23 + 1$ [Adding $1$ on both sides]
or $2p = 24$
Now divide both sides by $2$, we get,
$\frac{2 p}{2}=\frac{24}{2}$
or $p = 12$, which is the solution.
