• What is 12.95p=44 simplified to its lowest value?

`\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}`

`\sf \: 12.95p = 44`

Divide both sides by 12.95.

`\sf \: p=(44)/(12.95) \\`

Expand 44/12.95 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 100.

`\sf \: p=(4400)/(1295) \\`

Reduce the fraction 4400/1295 to its lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 5.

`\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf p = (880)/(259) = 3(103)/(259) \approx 3.39}}`
