Hello!

P = 47°
Arc AB is the intercepted by P
Arc ACB is the remainder of the circle

AB = 360 - ACB

(ACB - AB) / 2 = P

Substitute AB into the second equation and 47 for P

(ACB - (360 - ACB)) / 2 = 47

Multiply both sides by 2

(ACB - (360 - ACB)) = 94

Refine the equation

ACB - 360 + ACB = 94

Combine like terms

2ACB - 360 = 94

Add 360 to both sides

2ACB = 454

Divide both sides by 2

ACB = 227

Put ACB into the first equatoin

AB = 360 - (227) = 133°

The answer is D)133°

Hope this helps!
