The solution for the equation is [tex]p=\frac{9}{8}[/tex]

Explanation:

The given equation is [tex]p-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

We need to solve the equation.

The solution of the equation can be determined by finding the value for p.

Thus, from the equation, let us add both sides of the equation by [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Hence, we have,

[tex]p-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{8}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Simplifying the equation, we get,

[tex]p=\frac{7}{8}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Taking LCM for 4 and 8, we get,

[tex]p=\frac{7+2}{8}[/tex]

Adding the numerator, we have,

[tex]p=\frac{9}{8}[/tex]

Thus, the value of p is [tex]p=\frac{9}{8}[/tex]

Hence, the solution for the equation is [tex]p=\frac{9}{8}[/tex]
