m\left(x+20\right)=x_{6}-3p
Multiply both sides of the equation by x+20.
mx+20m=x_{6}-3p
Use the distributive property to multiply m by x+20.
x_{6}-3p=mx+20m
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-3p=mx+20m-x_{6}
Subtract x_{6} from both sides.
-3p=mx-x_{6}+20m
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3p}{-3}=\frac{mx-x_{6}+20m}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
p=\frac{mx-x_{6}+20m}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
p=\frac{-mx+x_{6}-20m}{3}
Divide mx+20m-x_{6} by -3.
