Solve the following equation
p+p+1=569
Solve for p
p + p + 1 = 569
Group the p terms on the left:
(1 + 1)p = 2p
Form modified equation
2p + 1 = + 569
Group constants
Group our constants 1 and 569.
subtract 1 from both sides
2p + 1 - 1 = 569 - 1
Cancel 1 on the left side:
2p = 568
Divide each side of the equation by 2
| 2p | |
| 2 |
| = |
| 568 |
| 2 |
p = 284
Final Answer
p = 284
