1.03p - 4 = 2.15p + 8.72
1.03p - 2.15p = 8.72 + 4 ------ Subtracting 2.15p, or adding - 2.15p to both sides
- 1.12p = 12.72
, or
You could have also multiplied the entire equation by 100 to get rid of the decimals, and end up with: 103p - 400 = 215p + 872.
Either way will work!!
You can do the check!!
