Answer 2

Given:

The given equation is:

`16-3p=(2)/(3)p+5`

To find:

The value of p.

Solution:

We have,

`16-3p=(2)/(3)p+5`

Multiply both sides by 3.

`3(16-3p)=3\left((2)/(3)p+5\right)`

`48-9p=2p+15`

Isolating the variable terms, we get

`48-15=2p+9p`

`33=11p`

Divide both sides by 11, we get

`(33)/(11)=p`

`3=p`

Therefore, the required solution is
`p=3`.
