Question

Find the value of $p$ in the equation
$\frac{p}{9}-8=17$

• A. $225$
• B. $-225$
• C. $\frac{225}{9}$
• D. $\frac{9}{225}$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$225$

$\frac{p}{9}-8=17$

$⟹\frac{p}{9}=17+8$

$⟹\frac{p}{9}=25$
Now, multiplying both sides by $9$ we get,
$⟹\frac{p}{q}\times 9=25\times 9=225$

$⟹p=225$
