Answer:
[tex]p= 3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{2p}{5} =1\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2p}{5} =\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Use cross multiplication.
[tex]2p*3=5*4[/tex]
[tex]6p=20[/tex]
Now divide both sides by 6.
[tex]p=\frac{20}{6}[/tex]
To make the fraction in it's simplest form divide both sides by 2.
[tex]p=\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
Now let us write is as a mixed number.
[tex]p= 3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
