Simplifying
8 + P + 2R = 3R
Solving
8 + P + 2R = 3R
Solving for variable 'P'.
Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + P + -8 + 2R = -8 + 3R
Reorder the terms:
8 + -8 + P + 2R = -8 + 3R
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + P + 2R = -8 + 3R
P + 2R = -8 + 3R
Add '-2R' to each side of the equation.
P + 2R + -2R = -8 + 3R + -2R
Combine like terms: 2R + -2R = 0
P + 0 = -8 + 3R + -2R
P = -8 + 3R + -2R
Combine like terms: 3R + -2R = 1R
P = -8 + 1R
Simplifying
P = -8 + 1R
