Two stores sell the same refrigerator for the same original price. Store A advertises that the refrigerator is on sale for 15% off the original price. Store B advertises that it is reducing the refrigerator’s price by $150. When Stephanie compares the sale prices of the refrigerator in both stores, she concludes that the sale prices are equal. Let p represent the refrigerator’s original price. Which equation models this situation?

I will give alot of points to who answers this question

I'm not sure about the answer, but this is how I would do it, since 15% and $150 are the same based on the question. do let me know if it's right! :)
