27.2/3.2 = 8.5

p = 8.5
3.2 (8.5) = 27.2

Hello there!


The equation is:
3.2 * p = 27.2

What would be P

Now we need to solve for P

3.2p = 27.2

Divide both sides by 3.2

3.2p/3.2 = 27.2/3.2

p = 8.5


I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions about the answer.

As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!
