Question

2/3p-14=p+13
How do I solve this

Answer 1

So here you just want to move all the like terms to either sides.

You can do this by first adding 14 to both sides.

2/3p - 14 = p + 13

+ 14 +14

2/3p = p + 27

And then by subtracting p from both sides

-1/3p = 27

And then dividing both sides by -1/3

p = -81

Answer 2

Add 14 to both sides
2/3p=p+27

Subtract p from both sides
-1/3p= 27

Multiply both sides by -3
p= -81

Final answer: p=-81
