Question

8p+17/2=25/2, what is the value of p?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$p = \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$8p+\frac{17}{2} = \frac{25}{2}$

$8p = \frac{25}{2} - \frac{17}{2}$

$8p = \frac{25-17}{2}$

$8p = \frac{8}{2}$

$8p = 4$

$p = \frac{4}{8}$

$p = \frac{1}{2}$

Answer 2

Step by step explanation

8p + 17/2=25/2
16p+17/2=25/2
16p+17=25
16p=25-17
16p=8
p=8/16
p=1/2

The correct answer is 1/2
