Solution

The correct option is B
-33

$\frac{p}{6} = - 5 \frac{1}{2}$

[converting $- 5 \frac{1}{2}$ into an improper fraction, we get $- \frac{11}{2}$ ]

$= \frac{p}{6} = - \frac{11}{2}$

[multiplying each term by 6]

$= \frac{p}{6} \times 6 = - \frac{11}{2} \times 6$

$\Rightarrow p = - 11 \times 3 = - 33$
