What is the value of p, if, 25(4 + 3p) ÷ 5 - 3 × 8 = 26?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 2.
25(4 + 3p) ÷ 5 - 3 × 8 = 26
⇒ 5(4 + 3p) - 3 × 8 = 26
⇒ 20 + 15p - 24 = 26
⇒ 15p - 4 = 26
⇒ 15p = 30
⇒ p = 30/15 = 2
Therefore, the value of p is 2.
