Answer:
3 = p
Step-by-step explanation:
16−3p=2/3p+5
subtract 5 from each side
16-5−3p=2/3p+5-5
11 -3p= 2/3 p
add 3p to each side
11 -3p+3p= 2/3 p+3p
11 = 3 2/3 p
change the mixed number to an improper fraction
3 2/3 = (3*3+2)/3 = 11/3
11 = 11/3p
multiply by 3/11 to clear the fraction
3/11 * 11 = 3/11 * 11/3 p
3 = p
