2/5p=3/5 member that to solve we want to isolate 1 p one side by itself also remember that we can do anything to an equation as long as we do it to both sides (except divide by zero) 2/5p=2p/5= p times 2/5 remember to make a fraction =1 multily it by it's flip ex, tomake 2/5 =1 multiply it by 5/2 to make it 10/10=1
2/5p=3/5 multiply both sides by 5/2 10/10p=15/10 1p=15/10 p=15/10 p=3/2
so the step is multiply both sides by 5/2 and simplify
