Solve p-p-1/2=1-p-2/3

$$p - \frac { p - 1 } { 2 } = 1 - \frac { p - 2 } { 3 }$$

Solve for p

$$p = \frac{7}{5} = 1\frac{2}{5} = 1.4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.

$$6p-3\left(p-1\right)=6-2\left(p-2\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by p-1.

$$6p-3p+3=6-2\left(p-2\right)$$

Combine 6p and -3p to get 3p.

$$3p+3=6-2\left(p-2\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by p-2.

$$3p+3=6-2p+4$$

Add 6 and 4 to get 10.

$$3p+3=10-2p$$

Add 2p to both sides.

$$3p+3+2p=10$$

Combine 3p and 2p to get 5p.

$$5p+3=10$$

Subtract 3 from both sides.

$$5p=10-3$$

Subtract 3 from 10 to get 7.

$$5p=7$$

Divide both sides by 5.

$$p=\frac{7}{5}$$
