Solve 2p/3-p/5=11 2/3

Evaluate

(2 \times \frac{p}{3}) - \frac{p}{5} = 11 \frac{2}{3}

Multiply the terms

\frac{2 p}{3} - \frac{p}{5} = 11 \frac{2}{3}

Covert the mixed number to an improper fraction

More Steps

\frac{2 p}{3} - \frac{p}{5} = \frac{35}{3}

Multiply both sides of the equation by LCD

(\frac{2 p}{3} - \frac{p}{5}) \times 15 = \frac{35}{3} \times 15

Simplify the equation
