34 = 14 + $\"1%2F4\"$ p
\n" ); document.write( "The object is to get p by itself;
\n" ); document.write( "First of all subtract 14from both sides;
\n" ); document.write( "34-14=14+ $\"1%2F4\"$ p-14
\n" ); document.write( "20= $\"1%2F4\"$ p
\n" ); document.write( "Now you are going to multiply each side by the reciprocal of $\"1%2F4\"$ , which is $\"4%2F1\"$ ;
\n" ); document.write( "20 $\"%284%2F1%29\"$ = $\"1%2F4\"$ p $\"%284%2F1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "80=p
