Question

Solve and verify your answer (5p + 4)/(3p + 2) = 7/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the above equation :

(5p + 4)/(3p +2) = 7/4

Using cross multiplication , we get :-

4(5p+4) = 7(3p+2)

= 20p + 16 = 21p + 14 [Using distributive property of multiplication]

= 21p-20p = 16-14 [Transposing 20p to RHS and 14 to LHS]

= p = 2

Hence , value of p = 2
