(1)/(4)p=11\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\\\ot4^1\cdot(1)/(\\ot4_1)p=4\cdot11\\\\\boxed{p=44}

Hello!

Explanation:

First, you had to do is multiply by 4 from both sides of an equation.


4*(1)/(4)p=11*4

And, then simplify. You can also multiply by the numbers.


11*4=44


4*11=44


44/11=4


44/4=11

Answer:
p=44

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
