Full solution

Q. Solve for

p

.

\newline

3(p - 8) - 3 = 3

\newline

p =

\_\_\_\_\_

Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation by distributing and combining like terms. $\newline$ $3(p - 8) - 3 = 3$ $\newline$ $3p - 24 - 3 = 3$ $\newline$ $3p - 27 = 3$
Isolate Variable: Isolate the variable $p$ by adding $27$ to both sides. $\newline$ $3p - 27 + 27 = 3 + 27$ $\newline$ $3p = 30$
Divide to Solve: Divide both sides by $3$ to solve for $p$ . $\frac{3p}{3} = \frac{30}{3}$ $p = 10$
