Answer:

p = 0.09375

Explanation:

simplify the fractions within the fractions first to make it easier:


(3)/(10) = 0.3 and
(4)/(5) = 0.8 and
(1)/(4) = 0.25

set up the equation then cross multiply:


(0.3)/(p) =(0.8)/(0.25)

0.3 x 0.25 = p (0.8)

0.075 = 0.8p

divide both sides by 0.8:

p = 0.09375
