-3(p-7)=21−3(p−7)=21
Step 1
Step 1.1
Divide each term in -3(p-7)=21−3(p−7)=21 by -3−3.
-3(p-7)-3=21-3−3(p−7)−3=21−3
Step 1.2
Simplify the left side.
Step 1.2.1
Cancel the common factor of -3−3.
Step 1.2.1.1
Cancel the common factor.
-3(p-7)-3=21-3
Step 1.2.1.2
Divide p-7 by 1.
p-7=21-3
p-7=21-3
p-7=21-3
Step 1.3
Simplify the right side.
Step 1.3.1
Divide 21 by -3.
p-7=-7
p-7=-7
p-7=-7
Step 2
Step 2.1
Add 7 to both sides of the equation.
p=-7+7
Step 2.2
Add -7 and 7.
p=0
p=0
