So first, you need to separate the expression and numbers. For me, i would prefer putting the expressuon on the left hand side and numbers on the right hand side. this will make the solving more clearer and easier to solve. 10p+5=18p-62 10p-18p=-62-5 -8p =-67 p= 8.375
the answer should be p= 8.375. but however it is not in the option.
