Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
2.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
2 2 • 5
2 = — = —————
1 5
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
3p - (2 • 5) 3p - 10
———————————— = ———————
5 5
Equation at the end of step

Pulling out like terms
5.1 Pull out like factors :
24 - 4p = -4 • (p - 6)
Equation at the end of step
5
:
-4 • (p - 6) = 0

Equations which are never true
6.1 Solve : -4 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
6.2 Solve : p-6 = 0
Add 6 to both sides of the equation :One solution was found :
p = 6
Answer:
4+2p=10×3/5p-2
4+2p=2×3p-2
4+2p=6p-2
2p-6p=-2-4
-4p=-6
4p=6
P=6/4
P=3/2
