Question

C=p+0.06p solve for p

Answer 1

`\bf C=p+0.06p\implies \stackrel{\textit{common factoring}}{C=p(1+0.06)}\implies \cfrac{C}{1+0.06}=p\implies \cfrac{C}{1.06}=p`

Answer 2

p = C/1.06

Explanation:

Combine like terms

1p + 0.06p = 1.06p

Isolate the variable

Divide to isolate the variable

C = 1.06p

C/1.06

1.06p/1.06 = p

Simplify

p = C/1.06

Answer

p = C/1.06
