Solve the equation using the Properties of Equality.
p=63/10
To solve an equation, we should first gather all of the variable terms on one side and all of the constant terms on the other side. In this case, the variable term is already on the left-hand side, so we will start by multiplying the equation by 9.
LHS * 9=RHS* 9
9 * a/9= a
.LHS /10.=.RHS /10.
Since the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 63 and 10 is 1, the solution is written in its simplest form.
