In order to solve the given equation 5p111=35p6 for the variable, isolate the variable term p on one side by performing some basic algebraic operations to get rid of the other numbers and terms associated with it.
Here to isolate p on both side, first multiply both sides by 6 and then multiply both sides by 11 and then subtract both sides by 55p and then simplify the like terms and then add both sides by 6 and then simplify further divide both sides by 85 as shown below,
5p111=35p6
5p1116=35p66
30p611=35p
30p61111=11(35p)
30p6=3355p
30p6+55p=3355p+55p
85p6=33
85p6+6=33+6
85p=39
85p85=3985
p=3985
Thus, the value of p=3985.
