#p=8#

#(3p)/4=6#

Multiplying by #4# on both sides, we get

#(3p)/cancel4*cancel4=6*4#

#3p=24#

Dividing by #3# to isolate #p#, we get

#(cancel3p)/cancel3=24/3#

#p=8#

#color(blue)(p = 8)#

We have :

#(3p)/4 = 6#

Firstly, multiply both sides by #4#.

#(3p)/cancel(4) * cancel(4) = 6 * 4#

#3p = 6*4#

Divide both sides by 3 :

#(cancel(3)p)/cancel(3) = (6*4)/3#

#6 = 2*3#, so our equation is :

#p = (2*cancel(3)*4)/cancel(3)#

And finally,
# color(blue)(p = 2*4 = 8)#.

I hope that helps!

The answer is 8

#(3p)/4=6#

#=>3p=4*6#
#=>p=(4*6)/3=(4*cancel(6)2)/cancel(3)#
#=>p=8#
