Solve P+P7/1008=140400

$$P+P \frac{ 7 }{ 100 } 8 = 140400$$

Solve for P

$$P=90000$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Express \frac{7}{100}\times 8 as a single fraction.

$$P+P\times \frac{7\times 8}{100}=140400$$

Multiply 7 and 8 to get 56.

$$P+P\times \frac{56}{100}=140400$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{56}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$P+P\times \frac{14}{25}=140400$$

Combine P and P\times \frac{14}{25} to get \frac{39}{25}P.

$$\frac{39}{25}P=140400$$

Multiply both sides by \frac{25}{39}, the reciprocal of \frac{39}{25}.

$$P=140400\times \frac{25}{39}$$

Express 140400\times \frac{25}{39} as a single fraction.

$$P=\frac{140400\times 25}{39}$$

Multiply 140400 and 25 to get 3510000.

$$P=\frac{3510000}{39}$$

Divide 3510000 by 39 to get 90000.

$$P=90000$$
