According to the information given, Aaliyah puts the same number of photos on each of the 9 pages in the album. The total number of photos in the album is 63.

To find the number of photos, p, on each page, we can set up the equation:

p * 9 = 63

Now let's solve it step by step:

Divide both sides of the equation by 9 to isolate p:

(p * 9) / 9 = 63 / 9

This simplifies to:

p = 7

Therefore, the number of photos, p, on each page is indeed 7.
