\huge\textbf{Hey there!}


\mathbf{7(1)/(6) = 5(2)/(5) + p}


\rightarrow\mathbf{7 (1)/(6) = 5(2)/(5) + p}


\mathbf{\rightarrow p + 5(2)/(5)= 7(1)/(6)}


\mathbf{\rightarrow {p + (27)/(5)=(43)/(6)}}


\text{SUBTRACT }\rm{(27)/(5)}\text{ to BOTH SIDES}


\mathbf{p + (27)/(5) - (27)/(5) = (43)/(6)- (27)/(5)}


\text{CANCEL out: }\rm{(27)/(5) - (27)/(5)}\text{ because it gives you 0}


\text{KEEP: }\rm{(43)/(6) - (27)/(5)}\text{ because it help solve for the p-value}


\text{NEW EQUATION: }\rm{p = (43)/(6) - (27)/(5)}


\large\textsf{SIMPLIFY IT!}


\mathbf{p = (53)/(30) \approx p = 1(23)/(30)}


\huge\boxed{\textsf{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{p = 1(23)/(30)}}}}\huge\checkmark


\huge\textbf{Good luck on your assignment \&}\\\huge\textbf{enjoy your day!}
